Setting Disk Parameters Option
Enable Write Cache
checkbox allows user to enable/disable write cache for hard drives that include this
performance feature. FastCheck automatically recognizes such drives and enables the feature as the
default setting. For drives that do not use write caching, this option is automatically grayed out.
Enable S.M.A.R.T. Check
checkbox tells FastCheck to regularly monitor each drive to assure that drive
failure prediction is functioning. The default is unchecked, meaning FastCheck will not monitor
this function.
Setting Screen Preferences
This section controls how the FastCheck utility screen is displayed and sets the security password to
protect the administrative settings.
Start Minimized
checkbox allows user to have FastCheck appear on the toolbar only on startup. Click
on the icon to see the FastCheck™ utility screen.
Always on Top
checkbox tells the Utility to appear above all programs until closed or minimized
manually.
Enable Password
checkbox in the Preferences section turns on/off use of a Password every time the
FastCheck™ Monitoring Utility icon is selected or the program is run from the Start menu.
Disabling use of a current password requires password entry (see Creating Password on next page).
