Disk error check
I used the Disk Error Checking fucntion under the Tools tab in Disk Properties. And noticed that whilt my both 2TB drives are of the same make and model, one checking is much faster than the other by a mile.
Could this because the checking does not include area which files are already written on?
Can anyone throw any light on this.
I did this, because, when I used Sea Tools from Seagate to check one of the drive, it failed, because the number errors exceeded the limit of the checking software. But running the check using the above fucntionality in Win 7, it passed. So may be the Disk Error Checking of Win 7 does not cover the used areas of the disk!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers
