Selective self-test flags (0x0):
  After scanning selected spans, do NOT read-scan remainder of disk.
If Selective self-test is pending on power-up, resume after 0 minute delay.

mint at mint ~ $

The above results came up instantly. Do not think it checked the entire
disk for bad sectors.

Will read man about -t and -T options to run longer tests.
