smartctl on SSD question

[Gene Heskett <gheskett@shentel.net>]

Greetings all;

I have been using amanda on this machine to back up the rest of my 
machines for over 2 decades. So I'm not a new user.

But I installed a 240 gig SSD about 6 months back, because its use as a 
holding disk tripled amanda's speed at backing up this 6 machine system.

But amanda has been increasingly plagued with bad crc checksums of the 
data in this holding disk, which usually leaves the files on that disk 
as it redoes that disklist entry bypassing the holding disk, which 
obviously takes longer as it is then doing the backup directly to the 
archive medium.

I just initiated a "-t long" test on it.  So since its an SSD, what is 
the best command to extract the most complete test report possible when 
the test has finished? Its now done, and the -a option gives it a clean 
report, along with a list of this and thats not supported. Cheap adata 
drive.

Thank you.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
