I'm going though my closet and testing some old hard drives to see what I can still use and what I need to throw away. I have a variety of IDE hard drives from Maxtor, Quantum & Seagate and I'm testing them with the Seagate Sea Tools Boot-CD I just download. Out of 8 hard drives I only see one that has actually tripped SMART, but the remaining 7 all pass the short test and all fail the long test. The logs don't provide much insight as to what's actually failing. Anyone know how legitimate these long tests are?
