I don't think that this is helpful I don't understand what it's trying to say, so it's basically useless to me, but that's not my problem, my problem is that I don't know how can I easily disable it.

This tool reported every drive to be defective, even the one that was only run for 30 days.

The strange thing is that I have yet to experience any data loss or other problems, so I believe that this tool is extremely inaccurate.

If this tool is so inaccurate, how come it's enabled by default anyway? If this only works correctly for some drives why does it checks drives that it can't scan correctly.

I recommend disabling this tool by default and putting an option for enabling it it the system settings, otherwise it will really annoy users and wast their CPU cycles of course.
