Hello to you all,
I got a new hard drive from Seagate and wanted to
run it in a bit before submitting rebates and whatnot.
I cloned the drive from my current active unit.
Some here gave the suggestion to run scan disk and
defrag in safe mode to keep the defrag routine from
stopping and starting all the time.
I did this and it went ok for a while, but defrag hung
up and just quit during the scanning process.
The drive seems to be working fine otherwise.
One other thing I could try to run it in would be to do
the write zeros routine which should be enough of a test.
Any further ideas on this?
