What is your test method for new HDDs before adding to array?
I'm looking to add some large Enterprise HDD's to my array and was wondering if a Long Smart Test would be sufficient before putting the drive into service?
I use Windows/Snapraid and have/use HDD Sentinel and also could run Read and/or write tests.
I'm curious what others testing methods are after a drive is shipped to them before putting it into service?
https://github.com/Spearfoot/disk-burnin-and-testing is what I've used historically. Generally speaking I only care about doing that on a fresh build of a NAS though. When I'm replacing a single drive, I'll do a long SMART and call it done, since the failure of that new drive won't matter (as much) in the context of a replacement in the array.
