Wipe Patterns
–
Allows the user to set a specific pattern to use for wiping the drive.
The number of passes is customizable (up to 7 passes) along with the type of data
written for each pass. In addition, a 7-pass DoD wipe can be set with pre-selected pass
values.
It is recommended to use the same capacity drive per task. When smaller capacity
drives are wiped together with larger capacity drives, the smaller drives will finish
first. However, the drive bays will not be available until the entire task is finished.
The ZX-T can perform one or both methods on the same drive(s) using the same task. The
ZX-T will perform each method in order (Secure Erase then Wipe Patterns) depending on
which methods are chosen. For example, if both Secure Erase and Wipe Patterns are
selected, the ZX-T will perform the Secure Erase first then a Wipe Patterns wipe.
