If the drive fails any test, it is probably unrepairable and needs to be returned (if under warranty) for a replacement or just discarded.
My drive failed in the short test itself. Select the drive and choose from the above menu to get its information or run short tests. I guess this external drive was actually created from an older internal drive series or something like that. For my external USB drive, it showed up both as the external USB drive and as an internal drive. When it starts it takes a lot of time looking for ATA, SCSI and USB drives connected to your computer.Īfter it starts, it shows the drives it has detected. If you cannot find it in the Start menu, just check C:\Program Files (x86)\Seagate\Seatools for Windows for an executable to run. Seatools can be downloaded from here and installed easily on Windows.Ĭonnect the harddisk you want to diagnose and then run Seatools. There does not appear to be a Linux version available. Seatools is a tool that can be used to test and diagnose internal and external harddisks manufactured by Seagate. 📅 2016-Dec-21 ⬩ ✍️ Ashwin Nanjappa ⬩ 🏷️ seagate, seatools ⬩ 📚 Archive
