4.4 DoD Erase Comp
As well as DoD erase, this function will also execute compare function to
make sure the random bit was correctly written. This function erases each
sector of the HDD three times: the first time with zeros (0x00), second
time with 0xFF and the third time with random characters, performs a bit
by bit check to see if data is completely erased. It will damage the data in
HDD, please make sure you backup all important data before using this
function.
DoD EraseComp Method
❖The erasing time of DoD Erase mode is three times longer than Full
Erase mode, and the time of DoD EraseComp is four times longer than
Full Erase mode.
