SCSI Hard Drive sorting is done in Advanced Test.
Start
We sort mostly by size & speed, but also serve special requests from buyers.

Testing SCSI Hard Drives
link to be added here
What to do when done, where to put them
- NEVER leave unwiped Hard Drives sitting around - this is a violation of Free Geek's data security policy.
- Keepers
- Put them on the "SCSI HD INCOMING" shelf, or, IF AND ONLY IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR DRIVES TO TEST RIGHT NOW,
- take them to the SCSI HD testing station in Advanced Test and test them.
- Recycle
- Pound them with a hammer until the platters are undoubtedly too bent to be read.
- Take them to the warehouse and put them on the "HARD DRIVES" shelf, or put them in the Hard Drive Recycle bucket in Advanced Test.
- NEVER MIX THEM WITH THE REJECT HARD DRIVES IN EVAL1! This will interfere with successful Hard Drive Sorting in Eval1.
