On the Utilities tab, you can test the network drive and get diagnostic information,
restore the drive to factory defaults, reboot or shut down the drive, and import or
export a configuration file:
Diagnostic
Run Diagnostic Test if you are having problems with your drive. The short test
checks the drive for major performance problems. The result of a short drive test is a
pass or fail evaluation of the drive's condition. The short drive test can take several
minutes to complete.
The more comprehensive drive diagnostic is the full test. It methodically tests each
and every sector for error conditions, and inserts bad-sector markers as required.
The full drive test takes several hours to complete, depending on the size and data
configuration of your drive.
To run a test:
1. Select Short Test (default setting) or Full Test, and then click the Run button. A
progress bar displays.
Messages indicate that the test is running and whether the drive passed or failed
the test.
2. If the drive passed the test, click the Close button to return to the Utilities page,
-OR -
If the drive fails the test, click the Customer Support button to get assistance.
