Yep, it's not a good idea to do a long test each day for example because it scans the whole disk surface so it's pretty stressful mechanically speaking, but once or twice a month won't make a big difference on the disk wear.
Alright thanks, I tweaked it a bit, how does this look now?
Also regarding the "each selected hour [to perform the test]", if I only set a start time and not an end time, does that mean the test will simply start at 4am and run until it finishes, or will it forcefully stop at 5am or something? (If they even take that long, I don't know). Also I was wondering if anyone could tell me the commands to write into the shell to just manually perform these tests and see the results right now just so I can take a look, really.
Also I don't know if you saw the post with the modified snapshots, but I changed the hourly one to every 3 hours;
Should I be staggering the time when it performs each snapshot like that? I tried to set it up so they wouldn't happen at the same time, also I think you don't want this to happen when there's a scrub going on at the same time as a smart test right?
I've set the scrubs to happen to both hard drives (it doesn't matter if both are running at the same time right? not with my CPU?)
Does anyone see any conflicts or anything I could change for the better?
Thanks again!
