There are three sections in the
Settings
screen:
Secure Erase
,
Wipe Patterns
, and
Format
.
Each setting will be performed sequentially. For example, if Secure
Erase is set to ON, a Wipe Pattern mode is specified, and Format is
set to ON, the unit will first secure erase the drive, then wipe the
drive according to the mode specified, then format the drive.
5.3.2.1 Secure Erase
Choose
ON
to Secure Erase the selected Target drive. For SCSI drives, the SCSI-NG sends
the SCSI FORMAT command to the drive. Most drives support this function.
Secure erase instructs the SCSI-NG to send a SCSI FORMAT
command to the drive. If the drive supports this command, it
will perform the task based on the manufacturer’s
specifications. Please contact the drive manufacturer to find
out if the specific drive being used supports the SCSI FORMAT.
5.3.2.2 Wipe Patterns
This setting allows the user to set a specific wipe pattern or patterns 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.
There are 4 selections when setting a wipe pattern:
MODE
HPA/DCO/ACS3
LBAS
PASSES
