how do you do a surface scan in OS X? Does Disk Utility do surface scans?
Anyway, you have scanned 25 mil (25 millions I assume) out of 970 millions. You need to do this about 39 times, x 40 minutes comes out to almost 1550 minutes, which is almost 26 hours.
What I do when I get a new drive, I erase it and write "zeros" on it. Is that the same thing as a surface scan?
Good luck!
