The Compare function can be used after a duplication s finished to confirm the data on
the target HDD is identical to the source HDD.
The Copy & Compare function executes a duplication and then automatically executes
the compare function immediately afterwards.
4.1 Quick Erase
The Quick Erase function only erases the HDD index table. It is the fastest way to erase
a HDD.
4.2 Full Erase
The full Erase function performs a single pass overwrite which will erase all sectors on
the HDD. It will take a longer time than quick erase.
WARNING! Any Data remaining data on any drive connected to a designated erase
port will be over written. Please back up all data before performing any Erase function.
The Erase function allows for three different types of drive erasing: Quick Erase, Full
Erase, and DoD Erase. Select your desired mode to clear all data from the drive. Refer to
functions [4.1 / 4.2 / 4.3] for details.
Notes:
• You can also use the source port and delete two drives simultaneously. Refer to
function [6.3 Erase Master] for details. By default the Source port is disabled as
an erase port.
• The Erase function can be stopped while in process by pressing the [ESC] for 3
to 4 seconds. However, any data that has already been deleted including the
drive partition table cannot be recovered.
