I’m not sure. But I just bought a 4-bay hdd docking station and try to use seagate tools to detect bad sectors. I expect it to run a few days. I think that’s how we check for bad blocks?

Can you remove the internal hard drive?
How is the longevity of this compared to WD Red Pro?

Same here. Seagate never again after I had a fail. If it ain't western digital or HGST, count me out.

For sale: used but retreaded tires. Could be 500 miles on them, could be 50,000. Great for your family or sports car, trust us, they're fine. Motorcycle tires available too!

If I'm reading this correctly, this is about a single drive failure. I figured it was going to be a large array with numerous failures.
