Secure Erase Description
Parted Magic's Secure Erase function is effective for both SSDs and HDDs. When booting a modern computer, users may encounter a "freeze" on the disk, but pressing the sleep button can resolve this issue. If the disk allows, Parted Magic will show the remaining time for the erase process, although older drives may not provide this feature. Once the erase is finished, a dialog will indicate whether the operation was successful or not. After the computer reboots, the log file will no longer be accessible. Users can expand the resulting dialog to explore additional compression options, and they can choose one or more to save the log file to a specified location. The program's functionalities are well-documented in its built-in help section, which can be accessed from any dialog window. In the event of a failed erase or a power outage, security can be easily disabled to ensure safe operations. Additionally, users can check the health status of compatible drives, and options for freezing drives are also available if needed or preferred. Furthermore, this versatility makes Parted Magic a practical choice for maintaining and managing disk drives effectively.
