Only HD disks can be formatted as high density, and only low density disks can be used with low density only drives, like the 1541 used with the C64.
The media test is 100% accurate. If you are curious, look at the 1st track/head with the flux display in the analyzer. It should be a nice flat line. It could be that your drive is bad, or you are not setting the density correctly for the media type you are trying to read/write (see the pull-down menu).
