CAUTION:

Some utilities are destructive to data on the media. When a utility is destructive to data, this is
indicated in the utility description. To prevent data loss, use media that is either new or that contains
unimportant data that can be erased. Do not attempt to perform a utility unless you are thoroughly
familiar with its usage, or have been instructed to do so by HP support personnel.
