5.4 Erase

Erase mode allows you to erase data on a connected hard drive. The hard drive needs to be attached to

either Disk 2 or Disk 4.

There are four Erase functions that you can select: Quick Erase, Full Erase, 3 X Wipe and 7 X Wipe.

5.4.1 Quick Erase

Quick Erase deletes the information from the hard drive’s MBR (Master Boot Record) and Partition

Table.

Note: Quick Erase is faster than the other Erase modes because it only deletes the boot sector. Your data

is still recoverable after a Quick Erase. If you want to delete any sensitive data stored on your hard drive,

please use one of the other Erase modes.

To run a Quick Erase:

1. From the main menu, select Erase and then press the ENTER button.

2. From the Erase menu, select Quick Erase and then press the ENTER button.

3. Select the location of the hard drive that you want to erase and then press the ENTER button. The

hard drive needs to be connected to either Disk 2 or Disk 4.

4. A confirmation screen appears. Select Yes and then press the ENTER button. The Quick Erase

process begins.
