Read/Write Error Handling
KillDisk allows you to select one of three ways to handle Read/Write Errors:
Abort entire disk group processing
This means that if you're running a batch erase and one of the disks has errors, the erase process for ALL the
disks in the batch will be terminated.
Abort only failed disk from group processing
This is the suggested setting. Failed disks will return an error and terminate the erase process, but other disks in
the batch will not be interrupted from completing the erase operation.
Ignore error for disk grouping
Ignores the read/write error and continues erasing wherever is possible on the disk. No active or forth going
operations are terminated.
Number of Read/Write attempts
Sets the number of attempts KillDisk make to perform an operation when an error is encountered.
Sectors to skip after detection of a bad sector
Sets the number of sectors ignored by the software when bad sectors are found.
