1. The document provides instructions for running self-test (SF) on a device in three scenarios: when the HDD is detected, for a common firmware, and when the HDD is undetected. 2. For an detected HDD, it instructs to backup the firmware and ROM, initialize them, run auto ARCO to set the DCM and load the firmware, and then run SF. 3. For common firmware, it says to write the common ROM, initialize it, run auto ARCO to write the firmware, and then run SF. 4. For an undetected HDD, it provides steps to write a donor firmware, initialize the ROM and firmware, run auto ARCO

WD selftest steps in different situations
- 1. WD SF HDD Detected-How to Run SF 1, Backup the original HDD FW and ROM to one new directory; 2, Initialize FW and ROM, backup the initialized fw and ROM, remember to create one different folder to backup them to avoid overwriting; 3, Power off and on and soft reset; 4, Click Auto Arco, select steps within the interface to Set DCM (Set DCM is to generate module 03); 5, If the hdd is undetected, reset the DIR starting address (starting sector of module 01); 6, Re-enter Auto Arco, select Load ATA, write FW and set DCM; 7, After the hdd is detected, run other steps of auto ARCO; 8, After auto arco completes, start SF. Common FW-How to Run SF 1, Write common ROM; 2, Initialize ROM; 3, Power off and on and click soft reset; 4, Click Auto Arco, select the common FW path, select steps to write FW; 5, After the auto arco above completes, Start SF HDD Undetected-How to Run SF 1, Find one set of donor FW; 2, Write ROM and initialize ROM; 3, Power off and on, Auto ARCO, select steps to write FW and wait the hdd to be detected; 4, Backup the ROM and FW; 5, Initialize the FW, write the ROM from above backup; 6, Power off and on, enter Auto Arco, select Load ATA, write FW, set DCM and wait until being detected; 7, Run other steps of auto arco after being detected; 8, After Auto arco, run selftest.
