• Disk grade settings
For each grade, you may select the Green, Yellow, or Red to represent the disk grade visually. Multiple grades
may share the same color.
• Maximum read errors
Defined under the second grade disks section, the maximum read errors settings allows the user to define the
maximum read error tolerance before a disk is categorized as a third grade disk. Third grade disks are the worst
grade level, and are considered unreliable for use.
