Thrashing a drive to flush out problems..

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi guys can anyone recommend a tool for thrashing the b*ll*cks of a drive in  way that isn't destructive to the data?

I was thinking badblocks with -w but it is destructive and i dont want to do anything that will potentially lower the integrity of my array? (Even tho it is raid6 :) )

There must be some bonnie esk tool that will read/write every combination to every block but keep the data safe after to flush out any sector issues etc.

Cheers.
