Running third party diagnostics...

Disk Manager software includes hardware diagnostics to verify
proper operation of your hard drives.  Third party hardware
diagnostics may not understand a drive installed by Disk Manager. 
Diagnostic tests that  write to the drive may overwrite data. Some
diagnostics may issue false errors.  It is recommended that you use
Disk Manager's diagnostics for  hardware testing.  Diagnostics that
do not write to the drive are always safe to use.
