ViVARD is a strong and easy-to-use application for low-level HDD diagnostics.
Supported interfaces: S-ATA (SATA), IDE (E-IDE), SCSI. Big drives (LBA-48) are supported.

VIVARD is very simple and easy and will not demand from user special knowledge of the interface or any standards.

Here are some key features of "ViVARD":

· Surface test. Program allows testing disk drive surface.
· Surface test with remap. Scanning drive with replacement of defects from reserve area.
· Erasing sectors or whole drive. Fast easing sectors or whole drive in mode UDMA (will clear all partitions, MBR, and all user data). The program deletes data from a hard disk drive completely, allowing its user to be sure that if the drive is sold or passed on the next owner will not be able to recover any data previously stored there.
· The program allows viewing of SMART-attributes.
· Record of the report on a current hard drive condition.
