ROCKPRO64 PCI-E SATA is low price and low power best to choose wipe your hard disk - joe - 05-13-2018

If your company or personal not use your old hard disk , but the hard disk data include have your privacy data from hard disk e.g ( Your medical treatment information , ID CARD Number , VISA CARD , PASSWORD ), this time you need to wipe your hard disk by the US LAW (HIPAA) .

This is very basic level to clear up your include privacy data.

I think most people know delete file is not really deleted , so this need to use Rrockpro64 help.
For the new generation HardDisk over 2TB , you need is time time time and more time and electricity to wipe your hard disk.
.
Yes , you can say physical destroy is very fast , easy and safe , but physical destroy tool very expensive .

I reseach some have hardware they just to run software wipe your hard disk.

1. http://www.mejw.com.tw/ TP100-I around USD $456 ( Support 4TB )
2. http://www.killdisk.com/killdesk.htm USD $1999 ( Support more than 4TB in size )

Debian arm64 , armhf open source software have ( Scrub , Nwipe ) can wipe your hard disk.

( Note: This two software without warranty and any certification ( e.g HIPAA, ISO27001/27002) , no guarantee your data is completely sanitized across the entire drive , but the same have wipe algorithm .)

At least recovery software can't find it privacy data

1. Scrub ( wipe algorithm )

To wipe properly you need to do a few wipes with random data...

All jokes aside, this could indeed be a niche market for the rock64pro... wonder how long it will take before someone makes some sort of rock64pro-based hard drive erasing product with easy to use touchscreen for say US$129? Smile

[ be warned, Joe mentioned the idea first, and I just turned it into a product, so we want royalties if someone does do that! Angel

Yes this is jokes , but this is i saw at least 4 company to sales hardware wipe tool , very expensive.

basically this is wipe your hard disk to protection your information just is level one.

level two is hard disk demagnetize , level three is physical destroy.

I think for home user use wipe software is enough , for company wipe software is protection you send some where
e.g repair or destroy your hard disk prevent some people easily to recovery your information.
