Can anyone recommend a utility which will let me do SCSI-disk things like surface scan, low-level format, bad-block re-vector and such? Rather like the scu utility on my Alpha box. smartctl cant do this stuff, and I've so far located Joerg Schilling's sformat-3.4 (which was last modified in 1998 and which currently wont compile on my Opteron box) and the Seagate 'seatools' utility (which doesnt offer low-level bad-block testing/revectoring). Any advice appreciated. Cheers, Terry
