Destroys the partition table.
Provides messages that warn the user that this is a
non-recoverable process.
The Full Erase Hard Drive provides a DOS utility that
performs the following:
Performs all the steps in Quick Erase.
Provides a DOS utility that writes random data to all
sectors of the hard drive.
Provide an estimate of time to completion along with
a visual representation of completion status.
Provides messages that warn the user that this is a
