Device: S.M.A.R.T.
Whole Evaluation not passed, continue to use the disk: If for some reason
the hard drive has developed a fault (such as one or more bad sectors), you
can instruct your DVR to continue saving to the drive.
Self-check Type: There are three types available:
Conveyance: This is a very quick test that verifies the mechanical parts of the
hard drive are working.
Short: This test verifies major components of the hard drive such as read/
write heads, electronics and internal memory.
Long: This is a longer test that verifies the above as well as performing a
surface scan to reveal problematic areas (if any) and forces bad sector relo-
cation.
When performing a test, your DVR will continue to work as normal.
In most circumstances, the information here will not be needed for general
use of your DVR, however one of our Swann Helpdesk & Technical Support
staff may ask you to access this if you call for assistance.

tential drive errors.
