Hi all,
I've just purchased 4 new hard drives (Seagate Ironwolf 10TB) and am going through the burn-in process as indicated in the resources section. On each of the 4 drives, I have run through a short SMART, Conveyance, extended SMART and full destructive badblocks burn in. All of these completed without error. To finish, I ran one more extended SMART test on each of the drives. 2 of the drives have completed the SMART test without error, but the other 2 drives are both stuck on 90% remaining. It has been approx. 24 hours since the test was initiated, so I would have expected all 4 drives to complete at similar times.
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what should be done at this point? Should I continue to just wait and see if there is any progression on these drives, or force stop and restart the test? Anything I can check to see if there has been a fault?
