[HDD] Seagate EXOs 12TB SATA Hard Drive - $99.99 ($8.33/TB) (Refurbished)
Verify authenticity or integrity? I run this on all of the drives I get in: https://github.com/Spearfoot/disk-burnin-and-testing

Should I return my drives?
You could check them using badblocks or the script available at this github repo https://github.com/Spearfoot/disk-burnin-and-testing. If they fail, send the seller the log file as evidence and getting a refund/replace should be pretty straightforward
- Just got some new drives. What do you think? Is this good enough packing?

Family member wants to stress test 4x20TB drives before using them. Need help....
I used this script fine on 18TB drives. I don't know why it wouldn't work on 20TB https://github.com/Spearfoot/disk-burnin-and-testing . It uses badblocks, but honestly I don't know much about this stuff. If it passes I consider it good to deploy. It does look like it uses a 8192 block size.

About to finish testing my 12x mechanical drives and not sure how to test my SSDs now
Hello, I'm using Spearfoot's disk-burnin script for smart short, smart long and bad blocks tests. I read here and there that we shouldn't test bad blocks on SSDs and I'm curious why. I'd also like to know how to test SSDs with the Spearfoot script since I already know how to test multiple disks at the same time with screens in Putty. I've read the documentation and scrolled through the script and I can't find a way to deactivate the bad blocks test and only do smart short and smart long.

Used SAS drive checklist?
I'm starting this process tonight and this is the best ressource I've found so far to do disk burnin and testing.

Harddrive beaten in shipping, how can I confirm if it's reliable?
You can do a 'burn-in' test for 48 hours in an attempt to give yourself some confidence that they are okay. In my experience unless they were going into a high-redundancy array the risk associated with keeping them is much higher than the downside of replacing them right away, if you can. Shouldnt be any guilt with returning them, the shop that sold them should be able to make a claim against the shipping company and should sell them as used/returned drives and the person who does buy them understands and accepts that risk.
- It ain’t much but it’s my first big boy storage drive. Question: I always run a full error scan on new HDD’s with HD Tune, is this necessary to ensure a full working drive or is it overkill? Should I just check SMART attributes?

Software to test harddrives?
I use this for new drives https://github.com/Spearfoot/disk-burnin-and-testing

Create vdev while completing burnin
So I'm currently testing a new pair of drives in my TrueNAS Server. I'm running Spearfoot's burnin script and it has finished running badblocks and has launched the final smartctl long-test.

Bought a few of these Ultrastar 16TB for $169 each. Is a burn-in script enough to spot any issues with them? Will be used in ZFS mirrors for 24/7 CCTV recording and Jellyfin server
bht is a great script I use to burn in my drives from TheArtOfServer's channel. https://github.com/ezonakiusagi/bht. Allows you to run 4 badblocks tests back-to-back completely writing through the entire disk to fully test its health.

2 brand new drive failures in 1 week -- 18TB drive curse, thank god for ZFS or I'd have lost it all
Either use badblocks followed by a long smart test or use bht (https://github.com/ezonakiusagi/bht) if you want to test multiple drives at once (also followed by a long smart test).

6 things that can go wrong when you're hellbent on using old hardware to crossflash an HBA and to burn-in 8 new drives. Details in the comment.

Used SAS drive checklist?
Igmyeongui, I found a similar tool https://github.com/ezonakiusagi/bht which looks like its easier to run on multiple disks at once since the tool you linked mentions having to open multiple sessions and run the tool manually each time. Have you seen BHT? If so I was wondering if there was something you liked about the one you linked over BHT?

This is how long it takes to "burn in" a Toshiba MG09 18 TB drive using badblocks. Around 8 days + 1 more day if you add a long S.M.A.R.T test at the end. I recommend doing so before trusting a new drive with my data. Especially one so large. I ran badblocks via tmux on my TrueNas server.
