Scannerz Lite overview

Scannerz Lite is a simplified version of SCSC's fully featured product, Scannerz. Scannerz Lite is intended to be used by individuals that want to be able to check their hard drives easily. A user simply selects the drive or volume they want to evaluate, start the drive/system test, and when Scannerz Lite is done it gives them a pass or fail status. Scannerz Lite data and log files are fully compatible with those used in the fully featured version of Scannerz, allowing a user to upgrade if they're interested in performing some of the more advanced diagnostic capabilities present in the fully featured version.

I got this and then ended up upgrading to the regular Scannerz. This thing is easy to use, and when they say it's for use by people that want to see if they have problems and if they do, take it into a shop for repair, they mean it. This product is for people that don't want to service their systems at all. It gives a simple PASS/FAIL test on a drive, and if you want to figure out how bad things are you have to look at the log files. I gave this thing 3 stars because it does what it says and it's low in price, but I think the reporting could still be a little better. Unless you have absolutely no intention of even trying to understand what's wrong with your system I would recommend people spend the extra 18 bucks and get the regular Scannerz, because it's a lot more capable. As-is, Scannerz Lite is OK, and if you want to keep things simple, this might be OK for you.

Easy to use and inexpensive. Does what it says, and it costs far less than an actual hard drive.
