Utilities Settings

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 tests 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 of your drive. You will be prompted as to the condition of the drive once the test
is performed. The full drive test may take 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,

If the drive fails the test, click the Customer Support button to get assistance.
