## Usage
`./disk-burnin.sh [-h] [-e] [-c <num_blocks>] [-f] [-o <directory>] [-x] <disk>`
`./disk-burnin.sh [-h] [-e] [-b <block_size>] [-c <num_blocks>] [-f] [-o <directory>] [-x] <disk>`
### Options
* `-h`: show help text
* `-e`: show extended help text
* `-b`: block size (default: 8192)
* `-c`: number of concurrent blocks to check (default: 64). Higher values will use more memory.
* `-f`: run a full, destructive test. Disables the default 'dry-run mode'. **ALL DATA ON THE DISK WILL BE LOST!**
* `-o <directory>`: write log files to `<directory>` (default: working directory `$(pwd)`)
