Abstract
A method for generating a storage drive qualification test plan includes receiving input values for a plurality of variables for a qualification test of a storage drive model. Each variable has a drive requirement weight and/or a testing schedule weight. The method includes determining a plurality of weighted drive requirement values by adjusting each input value having a corresponding drive requirement weight by the corresponding drive requirement weight and determining a plurality of weighted testing schedule values by adjusting each input value having a corresponding testing schedule weight by the corresponding testing schedule weight. The method also includes determining a storage drive requirement by increasing or decreasing a baseline storage drive requirement according to the weighted drive requirement values. The method includes determining a testing schedule by increasing or decreasing a baseline testing schedule according to the weighted testing schedule values.
