Subtest 01 Sequential Read
This subtest sequentially reads all the tracks on the HDD starting at track 0.
When all tracks have been read, the test starts at the maximum track and reads
sequentially back to track 0.

This subtest writes random data to 1000 different random addresses on the
HDD. This data is then read and compared to the original data.
