Epson I+ - Manual (Page 93)

This test operates by a complex process of writing, reading, and
verifying
information on every track of the hard disk, except for tracks that are
already flagged as bad tracks.
To start the test, press 3
and
then Enter. You see these messages:
Analyze Hard Disk
Read/Save/Write/Read/Restore/Read check for all
tracks...
Current cylinder is xxxx
As each track is checked, thecylinder number (xxxx) counts down to zero.
When the analysis is complete, the program displays a complete report on
the
status
of the disk, including a table of unflagged tracks that produced
write, read errors. For a 20MB hard disk with one flagged bad track, you see
this display:
Analysis finished.
Count of tracks flagged bad
=
1
Count of tracks with write, read errors = 0
Count of good tracks = 2459
No write, read error was detected.
No data was destroyed.
Press ENTER to return to the menu.
If the program finds one bad track that is not flagged, the summary
above shows one track with a write, read error, and only 2458 good tracks.
The report is then followed by a table like this:

Do you want to register the error tracks as bad tracks (Y/N)?
