Hard Disk Monitoring

One more quick question: As I'm running the Write+Read test, the Write test has finished and it's now running the Read test. I don't see the data for the Write test anymore. Is there a way to retrieve the Write test results once the test is completer or does HD Setinel overwrite all results with the...

Unfortunately, I have no idea how long the HDs were stuck in 50C+ temperatures. It could have been short or very long. During the test, while the Sentinel was still connected, the temperature reported was a very suspicious flat line at exactly 36C, so I'm assuming that temperature was wrong. Definit...

I'm somewhat frustrated right now. After days of running an Extended test and being stuck at 32 hr mark as I asked yesterday, this morning I saw an "Unknown" status on the disks being tested: https://ibb.co/L074yt9 (image sharing doesn't seem to be working. Here is the location of the imag...

Hmm, I thought for a new disk both Extended test AND Surface Read test were recommended. So are you saying that the Surface Read test already covers everything that the Extended test covers and more? I would like to know since I'm currently running a 31hr Extended test on 2 new 18TB drives, after wh...

I have just bought 2 new external 18TB HDs and am running all 4 recommended tests for a new drive before I put them in my NAS. A few questions: 1. While I'm running an Extended test on both drives, is it possible to simultaneously run a Surface Read test in parallel? HD Sentinel seems to allow it in...
