Optical Deep Read Test Failure Information

Group 6202

Device Optical

This group provides tests optical media devices. Optical device that can be tested are CD-ROM, DVD or Blu-ray drives. There are tests to cover both the mechanical and data read capabilities of the drives from the pre-boot environment. If required, data write tests are available in the Windows diagnostics suite.

Note: Requires suitable data disc media appropriate to the drive type and operating mode to be tested (CD, DVD or Blu-ray).

Note: 'ROM' Data Only Media must be used and ideally of near total capacity to ensure full travel of the device head during tests.
