Is running Data Lifeguard Diagnostic in Windows worse then running it in DOS?
I have a second (not OS) WD HDD that I added to system, and didn't want to waste a CD if the Windows version can run just as well as the DOS one.
Want to WRITE ZEROS then run EXTENDED TEST.
 
No, I've tested/wiped numerous drives with the GUI - Windows version...

It gives you the option to do a quick write, or full write (quick write does the first million and last million sectors to 0's ) then quick/extended tests.

You can do tests without wiping too... I've also had it re-allocate bad sectors that other programs just marked as bad and would do nothing about them.
