than quick erase. Complies with NIST800-88 Standards.
3. DoD Erase
This function complies with the U.S.A. Department of Defense (DoD5220.22-M)
standard to fully erase the HDD three times bit by bit to overwrite HDD data
and guarantees data will not be recoverable. This DoD erase method will erase
HDD over each sector three times: the first time with zeros (0x00), second time
with FF (0xFF) and the third time with random characters.
4. DoD Erase & Compare
Besides DoD erase 3 times, this function will also execute comparison to make
sure the random bit is correctly written.
Note
1. The erasing duration of DoD Erase mode is 3 times longer
than full erase mode.
2. The duration of DoD EraseComp is 4 times longer than full
erase mode.
5. Secure Erase
This function sends an ATA Secure Erase command. It overwrites every single
track on the hard drive with "00". Even HPA/DCO or other hidden data areas
can be erased all together.
Note
If you want to cancel execution of Copy/Compare/Erase, you can
press “ESC” for few seconds to stop the task.
Caution
The user is responsible for verifying the targets’ quality. Please
pick a few completed targets for testing in a mass production
environment for QC.
6. 7-Pass Overwrite
This mode is a DOD 7-pass and complies with the DoD5220.22-M (ECE)
standard. It fully erases the HDD 7 times bit by bit to overwrite HDD data and
