Clearing the log file?

[radzer0]

I know there is a database file that records bad sectors to show you as thing get worse etc. Is there a way to clear this? I hook many many hard drives to my computer and its getting VERY slow refreshing. I wouldnt be suprized if there is well over 500 drives in that database ill never see again.

Generally, if you inspect the folder where Hard Disk Sentinel installed (or the HDSDATA folder - if you use the Portable version), you may notice lots of DISKDATA .... files, created differently for each hard disks/SSDs you ever connected. The files created by the model ID, firmware version and serial number of the devices to identify them.
Each devices may have 2-3-4 such DISKDATA... files to store different kind of information (their last known status, their log/statistics etc...)
You may any time delete these files, especially for devices you no longer require. For example if you sort the list of tiles by date, you can easily find the oldest ones with no updates, these can be deleted.

Also the HDSentinel.sta file contains different statistics for the devices (for example daily temperatures, health) so you may delete that file as well, to make it clean.

Thanks, almost 1900 ones to clear so hopefully this speeds things up.
