Advanced Features

Diagnostic

The KanguruClone HD includes several diagnostic modes to run reports on a

drives physical status. The following modes are used to verify if a drive can be

used with the KanguruClone HD:

• Random Seek – randomly reads sectors to see if there are bad sectors in

the hard drive.

• Seq. Seek – checks the hard drives in a specific pattern to check if there

are any bad sectors in the hard drives.

• Write Pattern – checks if there are any sectors that cannot be written to.

You can define the pattern in the Configuration mode.

• Read Verify – reads all sectors to check if there are any sectors that

cannot be read.

To run a diagnostic function:

1. Attach the hard drive(s) that you would like to run the diagnostic tests on.

2. Press the left arrow to enter the Setup Menu. Make sure the > arrow is next

to Diagnostic by using the up and down arrows, and then press the right

arrow to enter the Function menu. You can now select the desired Diagnostic

mode (Random Seek, Seq. Seek, Write Zero, or Read Verify), and use the

right arrow to confirm [x]. Press the left arrow two times to return to the main

menu. You can now press the right arrow to begin.

4. Once the KanguruClone HD has finished the diagnostics, it will display a “V”

for passed Target drives, and an “X” for failed Target drives.

Tool

The KanguruClone HD includes several modes to completely erase drives. The

following modes are used to wipe a drive clean:

• Full Erase – deletes all information, wiping the drive clean.

• Quick Erase – quickly delete the information in the reboot sector of the

drive.
