Fixed disk advanced test (FDAT) PC-Doctor Fixed-Disk1 Advanced Test module (FDAT) is a full-featured highly configurable fixed-disk test suite. The configurable capabilities of FDAT allow users to enable or disable specific tests, enable or disable testing features, control the test log detail, alter testing parameters, and so on. FDAT tests for and reports most commonly found errors on a fixed-disk drive and is able to test up to 128 SCSI and 4 IDE drives (up to 132 total drives). Drive information is gathered through FDAT's enumeration of available devices and user specific configuration parameters located in the FDAT.INI. FDAT uses information supplied by these features to indicate specifically what devices are available for test, what tests are available for the device, device properties, and so on. To change testing parameters, you modify the FDAT.INI file in PC Doctor for DOS. FDAT consists of the following subtests and features. Fixed-Disk Tests: 1.
