is useful in confirming that the device itself is operating properly. Not all devices
support an internal self-test.
Description
NOTE:
•
If no options are specified, L&TT runs the test with looping options set to Count
based loop with a looping value of 1.
•
Test will not overwrite any data on media present in the drive.
•
For instructions on how to perform this test, see
“Running tests and device-specific
or
“Running the tests (CSI)” (page 50)
