Pc-Check Windows RAID Linear Read Test
 Failure Information

Group Number 710X

Device RAID

This group checks RAID devices. RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a storage technology that combines multiple disk drive components into a single logical unit. This can give advantaged in terms of speed, reliability and cost.

Test Number 301

Linear Read

Each Read Verify test iteration is one seek and verify. Each iteration, the seek position increases by one MB increment (determined by the range and coverage). The Read Verify test is always done with the seek position increasing each iteration.

NOTE: This test is only available on drives which have either a capacity greater than 2TB or a sector size greater than 512 bytes.

Estimated Test Time 16 to 20 seconds per 1000 MB. Actual times will vary depending on several factors including: the device read speed, access times, the interface and medium used.

PARAM1: Duration

Time to run the test.

PARAM2: Coverage

Percentage of RAID disk to test.

PARAM3: Maximum Errors

Continues to test until the maximum number of errors is reached.

PARAM5: Windows Event Error Count

Windows® Event Error count between reads. 0 indicates the Windows® event error will not be read.
