CONFIGURING YOUR SCSI CARD
3.2.8 Low Level Format Utility
Since most SCSI drives are already pre-formatted when shipped from their
manufacturers, you can skip this section except in the following situations:
!
A disk drive is damaged
!
The disk drive has not been formatted with the 512B/block parameter
After selecting the desired device and confirming the operation, the low-level
format will proceed. Under normal circumstances, it is both unnecessary and
inadvisable to perform low-level formatting. Executing this utility will erase all
information on the drive.
3.2.9 Verify Disk Utility
This utility is used to detect bad blocks on the chosen disk. With your
confirmation, the bad blocks detected can be reassigned for future operations.
The SCSI VERIFY command is non-destructive, and therefore won't destroy the
data on the drive.
