Consider adding a f3 testing step #13

I found a good manual for burn-in testing on reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/alh22g/burning_in_hard_drives/efemr7k?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

In steps 3-5, he also makes an additional check with ZFS and f3write.

Would it make sense to add these steps in your script, too?

Interesting idea, and thanks for the suggestion.

I don't have time or interest in pursuing this feature, but I welcome pull requests!

Maybe I can do this next month when my two external SSDs are prepared to be attached to the NAS
