3.13 Quick Erase
Quick Erase function is designed for emergency data erase in few seconds by providing ATA
command. This function can be triggered from cloud to InnoAGE SSD remotely through both in-
band and out-of-band channels.
3.14 Write Protect
When Write Protect pins are shorted, Write Protect function would be enabled, and ATA write
command would be aborted, which can prevent the disk from data modification or data deletion.
Write-protected data in disk is read-only, that is, users could not write to it, edit it, append data
to it, or delete it. This function can be triggered from cloud to InnoAGE SSD remotely through
both in-band and out-of-band channels.
3.15 Sanitizing InnoAGE SSD
Sanitizing means rendering encrypted data useless by changing the AES encryption key. This
operation is initiated through the ATA Cryptographic Erase command. After the key has been
altered, the data written with the previous key would appear to be random, incomprehensible
data. This function also allows the user to verify that hardware encryption actually works. The
purpose of ATA Cryptographic Erase command is to sanitize all user data and make it unreadable,
leaving out time-consuming normal erase procedure that requires many cycles of data over
writing. This function can be triggered from cloud to InnoAGE SSD remotely through both in-band
and out-of-band channels.
