SeaTools

SeaTools is a useful utility developed by one of the popular HDD manufacturers. It is designed to determine the condition of the drives and eliminate the detected failures.

What interfaces it supports

The well-known American company Seagate has released a program for quick and advanced diagnostics of hard drives with SATA, USB, ATA and SCSI interfaces connected to a computer or laptop. Compatible with any manufacturer's products. Testing takes place in a special mode, capable of enabling and disabling cache, loading fresh firmware for disk chips.

Program functionality

The utility searches for errors by fast or long data reading. A basic scan takes less time than a comprehensive scan. Upon detecting a problem, SeaTools will offer to run an advanced scan to gather detailed information about the problem and provide recommendations on how to restore HDD performance if it is repairable.

More details about the scanning procedure

SeaTools is the optimal solution for professionals and users alike. The first step is to define a specific task. You need to check the box for the connected drive, one or more. The more there are, the longer you will have to wait for the diagnostics to be completed. The capacity of the device should also be taken into account. Disk identification is a rather long procedure, so do not worry that the program hangs at startup, it takes time to perform a number of complex operations. A clear indicator allows you to monitor the progress of the process. Testing can be easily interrupted at any time, loss of any data from the hard disk is excluded. Diagnostic results are displayed on the screen. The list of HDDs with failures is divided into categories by interface type, their serial number and model are also displayed. What problems can be fixed with the help of the application:

• Software failures;
• chip overheating;
• bit sectors.
