Looking at your screenshot, you starting with list disk.

If look my screenshot, I start with list volume.

I will try your way out.

The second one I posted here post #18 is list volume.

OK I get your point, why does doing it THAT way "list disk, list partition" do the whole HDD where-as you say doing "list disk, list volume" does not do the whole HDD.

I have not done it that way, will play with latter.

As a warning:

If you do it this way ... it will do the whole disk, at least that's what I experienced.


list disk

select disk #

list partition

select partition #

clean all





Like I said, I'm going to set up another HDD so I can verify both methods in the next day or so, I'll keep you informed.

Hello Ray, thanks for helping with this.



That doesn't do a secure erase though, right, just marks the space as empty; formatting doesn't remove the data either, right?
It's the secure erase methods I'm interested in. :)
