Fixed Disk Drive Test Error Codes
The 1700 series of Diagnostic error codes identifies failures with fixed disk drives, fixed
disk drive controller boards, fixed disk drive cabling, and system board functions.
Corrective action may require replacement of the fixed disk drive cables, fixed disk drive
controller, fixed disk, or system board assembly. If your system uses a drive array
controller, see the section for Drive Array Advanced Diagnostics (DAAD).
