[plug] SMART drive error resetting

[Arie Hol]

Try- http://www.ontrack.com/

They should have some utilities you can download - like testing utilities
and a disk eraser.

They are not Linux based but you can run them from a boot disk using DRDOS.

The boot disk is created when you extract the files from the downloaded archive.

You can verify if your S.M.A.R.T logs are correct before you reset them !

I have used their utilities for Quantum hard drives on several occassions
and have recovered hard drives that were given up as F**t.
