The data on the entire HDD is read, and if it is taking longer to access the data than the prescribed access time, a warning message is displayed.

To stop the checking operation at any time, press the STOP button. The check operation is stopped, and the results of what has been checked so far are displayed.

It takes about 2 hours to check 500 GB of data so use the external DC power supply.

Only HDD1 is accessed when the unit is used in the RAID1 mode. To check both HDDs, set the RAID1 mode to the JBOD mode, and check each HDD in turn.
