I ran a short one and it said it was all good. When I try to run the long one, it keeps aborting. I'm not sure why it is doing that tho. I may just change the sata cable completely. Bad thing is, it is right next to the drive my OS is on so I want to shutdown to do that. Just in case the wrong one comes unplugged.
