Hard Drive Test Pilot

Hard Drive Test Pilot is a powerful software program that lets you scan HDDs for all sorts of internal errors which may cause system damage.

The interface of app is quite outdated, seeing that the design closely resembles the classical one used in Windows ’98 or ’95. Moreover, the UI is quite easy-to-use, as you just have to choose the partition you want to scan, and press “Continue” in order to start the whole process. You can also view your engine’s status and the results of the checkup.

The program enables users to view the recent activity in TXT files, which can be saved to your PC later on. In addition to that, erasing all the logs is possible, so as not to end up hoarding a lot of unnecessary files.

Hard Drive Test Pilot supports scanning the BIOS settings, LPT port (this will print a paper when done), CMOS and COM ports, so that you can be certain there are no errors on your computer.

The application lets you scan in stealth mode, which means that HDTP is not going to affect all the processes you are undertaking in the same time.

In the “Engine Status” section, you can view the number of files included in the virus and error library, and also the exact time at which you have opened the program.

In conclusion, although Hard Drive Test Pilot has an outdated interface, it can be quite a useful application that enables you to see your hard drive's state, by closely checking all the existing HDDs and the BIOS settings, LPT, CMOS and COM ports.
