IMHO, we need an expert who can tell us that :D
IMHO, testing will never prove or show us that. I understand what you are
saying, but for someone sitting and watching what is happening on a
monitor, won't notice or can tell what is going on deep inside. Please,
understand I'm not against you in this, I'm just saying :) stating my
opinion. As I believe all of us are smarter than anyone of us so sharing
each other thoughts is a great thing :)

Because, I have two HDD (please check the report) and I have Data on the
first HDD (BUT NO SWAP Partition) and I just did the manual approach and to
be honest, as I said, 4 tests were done via "Automatic" approach so,
thought some kind of a change. But, tell you the truth? I knew it you would
disagree :D I was right :D but yet again, because I have two HDD, I just
wanted to do the manual way.

Again, IMHO, that would make no difference. Logically. Yes, I know, you
want to do it after all.

How can I sleep and you are asking me for more tests? :P :P :P hehe


Anyway, no promises here but if I get a chance, I will do it, just for you
despite the fact I'm not convinced at all.
