As other have stated, you can not run a low level format on modern drives. The test program will usually produce an error code you can use to get an RMA for the drive if it is under warranty. While not completely true, it requires plugging into the diagnostic connector on the drive, and sending the correct commands. Not something even most advanced user are normally equipped to do.
