What is Disk Test?
Disk Test
Disk Test is a software application that provides users with a simple means of testing any HDD by writing random data or a custom text to the free space, with support for erasing data when done.
Features:
- Portable - no installation required
- Test multiple partitions simultaneously
- Choose the type of data to be used
- View error codes and their meanings
- Erase all data after the checking process
If you copy the program files to a removable storage device, you make it possible to easily run Disk Test on any computer you have been granted access to, by simply clicking the executable.
Although not very easy on the eyes, the interface you are greeted by encloses a pretty simple and intuitive build. It is comprised of a few buttons, some check boxes, and a progress bar to let you approximate the time until the operation is done. This means that all types of users can learn how to handle it with ease, including those less experienced with software apps.
This program enables you to test multiple partitions at the same time, while it is also possible to choose the type of data to be used. To be more exact, you can use a random 250 block, a continuously random method, the standard "0101" one, or the custom string.
Last but not least, you can easily view error codes and their meaning, erase all the data written after the checking process is done.
In conclusion, Disk Test is a pretty efficient piece of software when it comes to testing all your HDD partitions. The interface is intuitive, although not very appealing, the response time is good, and the computer's performance is going to be hampered in quite a significant matter, yet this is to be expected when considering the nature of the tool.
