Drive Self Tests (DPS)

Drive Protection System

 

 

A diagnostic hard drive self test. It scans critical physical components and every

 

sector of the hard drive for physical faults and then reports any faults to the

 

user.

 

 

Running independently of the operating system, it can be accessed through a

DPS Access through F10 Setup

Windows-based diagnostics utility or through the computer's setup procedure. It

during Boot

produces an evaluation on whether the hard drive is the source of the problem

 

and needs to be replaced.

 

 

The system expands on the Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting

 

Technology (SMART), a continuously running systems diagnostic that alerts the

 

user to certain types of failures.

 

SMART Technology*

Allows hard drives to monitor their own health and to raise flags if imminent failures

SMART III – Off-Line Read Scanning

By avoiding actual hard drive failures, SMART hard drives act as "insurance"
