I would love to learn about other people's experience with the application. I still make some additions/changes occasionally, but there's no exact roadmap. Didn't have to deal with forensics experts yet though. I have been using the application for some time for personal needs on all supported platforms. The initial active development phase is done.
The application hasn't even been tested on RAID storages, beware. For example, using a block size of 1 MB the size of the storage can be up to 4096 TB. In the Sleep state the power consumption of the memory device is minimized and the memory. Sleep (CMD5) A card may be switched between a Sleep and a Standby state using the SLEEP/AWAKE (CMD5). device in sleep mode, any command issued to it will cause it to exit sleep and respond. The maximum number of blocks per storage device is 2 32, or 4,294,967,296. When the host is ready to access a memory. Later, a support for Secure Erase ATA commands may be added to make the process more reliable. The best approach currently is to use multiple wiping rounds with random data. For SSD, it's impossible to reliable wipe all the data because of the various optimizations performed by modern SSD controllers, namely wear leveling and compression. Tracks & skips bad blocks and other localized errors automatically (Experimental). Allows to override OS recommended block size for possibly faster operations. Uses fast cryptographic random generator. Validates the data (reads back) to make sure all write commands were successful. Supports Windows (but not WSL), macOS and Linux. Or non-cross-platform, which was a requirement for me.
There are other similar applications around (including multiple built-in Linux tools). In other words, on overwriting existing data with multiple layers of randomly generated data or some The usual methods for wiping (or sanitization) a drive, including those (allegedly) used by government agencies are based Should work with any HDD, SSD (read limitations) and flash drives. A secure, free, cross-platform and open-source drive wiping utility.
