1.3 Instant Secure Erase / Secure Erase
This section provides conceptual information and instructions for using the Instant Secure Erase (ISE) or
Secure Erase (SE) features included with Western Digital drives.
Data Erasure Options
Western Digital provides several options for securely erasing data from its drives. The appropriate method
depends upon many factors, including the following:
•Erase Configuration (ISE or SE)
•Drive Type (HDD or SSD)
•Interface Type (SAS, SATA, or NVMe™ )
•Encryption (none, TCG, or FIPS)
1. This value is the original date of product manufacture. For the specific manufacture date of your platform, check the
agency label attached to the platform. There will be a 4 digit date code on that label.

1.3 Instant Secure Erase / Secure Erase
For more information on the sanitize command for specific drive models, please see the drive model's
specification, contact Western Digital technical support, or download the following whitepaper for details:
https://documents.westerndigital.com/content/dam/doc-library/en_us/assets/public/western-digital/
collateral/tech-brief/tech-brief-instant-secure-erase....
ISE / SE Overview
Instant Secure Erase (ISE) is Western Digital’s implementation of the industry standard T10 (SAS)/T13
(SATA) sanitize command, allowing users to instantly erase both user-accessible data and hidden user
data from Western Digital drives.
The sanitize command supports three options:
1. Crypto Scramble (SATA) / Crypto Erase (SAS): deletes the encryption key of a self-encrypting drive.
2. Overwrite (HDDs): overwrites the data on the drive with a supplied value.
3. Block Erase (SSDs): electrically erases each storage element by modifying their voltage levels.
Secure Erase (SE) is a subset of ISE, where the Crypto Scramble / Erase option has been disabled, allowing
only the Overwrite or Block Erase options.
Requirements
To perform secure deletion, the following versions are the minimal recommended/supported utilities for
each drive interface required on the host. For other versions, please verify the arguments/parameters in the
appropriate man pages.
•SAS: sg_sanitize version 1.00 20151219 (included in sg3_utils 1.422)
•SATA: hdparm version 9.58
•NVMe: nvme-cli version 1.13
Erase Methods
The following methods cover all erasure options and storage technologies for Western Digital drives.
For more information on the sanitize command for specific drive models, please see the drive model's
specification.
Note: If a RAID adapter or software is in use, remove the drives from a RAID set before erasure.
Note: If a drive is encrypted (TCG or FIPS), unlock the drive before executing any sanitize
commands.
Note: In the following commands, replace the generic reference of <dev> with the specific
device reference appropriate for your operating system (i.e. sgX for Linux®, SCSIX:X,X,X for
Windows).
SAS
Note: In the following sg_sanitize commands, the --quick option starts the deletion
immediately. If the --quick option is not specified, the drive's inquiry response strings are
printed in case the wrong device has been specified, and the user is given 15 seconds to
reconsider whether they wish to erase all the data on the drive.

Value Definition
0 No secure erase operation requested
1 User Data Erase: All user data shall be erased, contents of the
user data after the erase is indeterminate (e.g., the user data
may be zero filled, one filled, etc). The controller may
perform a cryptographic erase when a User Data Erase is
requested if all user data is encrypted.
2 Cryptographic Erase: All user data shall be erased
cryptographically. This is accomplished by deleting the
encryption key.
