Scan Target Mode Step-by-Step 

1.  From within the Settings Menu tap 

 the 

Diagnostics icon. 

2.  Locate and tap 

 the Scan Target icon. A 

menu screen with a Speed icon appears 
giving the user the option to change the 
speed from Fast to Thorough. 

3.  Use the 

 Speed icon to select between 

the Fast and Thorough settings. 

4. 

Fast 

(Default) – This is the fastest. 

5. 

Thorough

 – This is the most thorough and 

provides the most detailed scan of the drive. 

i. 

Important Note:  

The Thorough 

operation writes patterns to some 
sectors, which can cause data 
corruption.  Use this setting only when 
data loss is not an issue. 

6.  Tap 

 the Start icon to begin scanning. A 

status screen will appear. 

7.  When finished, the Logicube SuperSonix will 

notify you if the scan was successful and 
provide a summary report containing the 
number of Bad Sectors, Weak Sectors and 
Weak Spots. 

8.  After reviewing the summary, tap 

 

the <OK> ilogiccon to return to the Scan 
Target Menu. 

 

Repair Target Mode 

 

Repair Target mode scans the Target drive using a 
Logicube exclusive algorithm in an attempt to repair 
all weak and bad sectors encountered. Please note 
that this process can take a long time. 

Note:

 The Repair Target operation directly 

manipulates the contents of the Target drive with no 
effort being made to retain the original data.
