Using SCSI Disk Utilities
To access the SCSI disk utilities, follow these steps:
1
Select the SCSI Disk Utilities option from the menu that
appears after starting SCSISelect. SCSISelect scans the SCSI bus
(to determine the devices installed) and displays a list of all
SCSI IDs and the devices assigned to each ID.
2
Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to a specific ID and
device, then press Enter.
3
A small menu appears, displaying the options Format Disk
and Verify Disk Media.
■
Format Disk—Allows you to perform a low-level format
on a hard disk drive. Most SCSI disk devices are preformatted
at the factory and do not need to be formatted again.
Caution:
A low-level format destroys all data on the
drive. Be sure to back up your data before performing
this operation. You cannot abort a low-level format
once it has started.
■
Verify Disk Media—Allows you to scan the media of a
hard disk drive for defects. If the utility finds bad blocks on
the media, it prompts you to reassign them; if you select
yes, those blocks are no longer used. Pressing Esc at any
time aborts the utility.
