storagetool
The storagetool tests mounted storage media.
The tool searches for any device in /dev/hd*, sda, sdb, or sdc and tests using them. The tests are le-copy tests to the device in the
mounted le system. The les are written, compared and removed, leaving the le system as it was before the test. You can run more tests
using the bonnie++ tool and the tool reads SMART data from the device using the smart option.
Tests
The standard test creates a directory on the le system, opens a le for write, copies the le, compares the les, and reports errors.
The test repeats 10 times. After the test completes successfully, storagetool removes all the test les.
