SCSI Hard Drive sorting is done in Advanced Testing.
Testing SCSI Hard Drives
Start
Currently, Eval is told to bring all SCSI HDs 36GB & larger to HD Incoming in the TARDIS.
We do not ask them to tell if a drive is U160 or not.

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.
- In Spec
- 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.
- Below Spec
- Pound them with a hammer until the platters are undoubtedly too bent to be read.
- 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.
