HUTIL is made with the aim of testing a Samsung hard disk drive while it is installed inside a PC, regardless of the status of user’s operating system. It is a good idea to test drive that is having problems with HUTIL to see if it is truly defective to avoid possible unnecessary troubleshooting or factory service. HUTIL includes EraseHDD, a utility that will perform a low-level format including the partition table and Master Boot Record.
