Disk Health?

Just to keep you all busy so that you don't get bored.

I went to PCPitstop to check my Disk Health and got this message:-

"Unable to run Disk Health (Scanrating): Unknown(-1)"

Does any kind soul out there know what that's all about Please??

Best Regards, Cochise.

 

OK Folks, Relax......It was me again not being patient enough to wait and give the thing time to gather up the information, I'll get the message one of these days:-

WAIT......WAIT.........WAIT.

Regards, Cochise,

 

Hi Cochise,

Do you have a type and brand for that HD?
There might be better tools available then that online check.

Regards,

Pieter

 

Yep! Pieter, I certainly have, it's:-

SAMSUNG SV3002H (Hard Drive)
(30.04 GB -- drive ), rev PV10)

(Thank God for Belarc Advisor LOL )

Cheers, Cochise.

 

The Samsung site keep telling me they are very busy.
Probably loads of eager helpers.

Try this link if it works for you: http://www.samsung.com/Support/ProductSupport/Download/Model_Select.aspx?type=Hard%20Disk%20Drive&typecode=12&subtype=SpinPoint%20V%20Series&cmssubtypecode=1202&model=SV3002H&filetype=DR

If no joy, try this one: http://www.disk-utility.com/hard-disk-tool.html

Hi Pieter,

Thanks for that. The Samsung link didn't work for me either, had a look at your second suggestion....Wow! looks a might complicated to me, I'm just a simple man LOL.

Must admit though, it does look to be an interesting piece of kit eh? Do you have it?

Cheers Cochise.

 

Hi Cochise,

No, I don´t use it myself. My drives are Seagates and they have their own tools, but I did some searching on a Dutch forum I frequent and this is what the hardware specialists advised over there.

Pieter

 

Fair enough Pieter,

Most kind of you to take the time to look. I think I may D/L that Disk Utility just to see what my HD is upto in there in the dark!!

Thanks again, Cochise.
