White Canyon was identified as the vendor to. this depends on the hardware (controller) of the device! - in this case your best chance would be a "built in firmware" or special software from the manufacturer. As part of cost saving initiative, disk wiping cost is one of the area which was identified can be minimised. If a file is deleted using the Recycle Bin, the file is not actually deleted.
The worst case would be: you are erasing nearly nothing and just killing your device much quicker than necessary!. When a Windows or Linux system saves a file, it does two things: it creates an entry for the file in the Master File Table, which functions as a sort of ‘table of contents’ for the drive, and it saves the file data itself onto sectors of the hard drive. you only need to create a bootable media (CD, DVD, USB, etc.) and start from it.Īn interesting option would be Ultimate Boot CD: it offers DBAN and a bunch of other interesting tools on one bootable CD.įor people already using GNU/*nix-systems it may be easier to install and use nwipe (it can be considered as DBAN for different hosts) or simple use shred or dd from the GNU Core Utilities.īUT to make it clear, on SSDs (or other flash based media) every kind of "secure deleting" may be useless! It would be the universal method because it works from it's own bootable iso, is therefor platform independent, also free (as in speech and beer). in general i would advise to use DBAN (or it's unofficial fork dban) to wipe complete disks:
