Low Level Format

With Eraser-Disk you can do a true factory low-level format on any drive type, regardless of the size, make or model, even SCSI and IDE drives. Also if track Zero is damaged it will relocate track zero and fix those drives.

The difference between EraserDisk low-level format and other low-level formats is;

A.  Other solutions use a bios call to perform their low level format routine. This routine is the reason why drive manufactures print on the side of the drives (DO NOT PERFORM A LOW LEVEL FORMAT. SEND BACK TO MANUFACTURER)

B.  Bios low-level formats only have the capability to get rid of the indexing system. The information can still be recovered. So for security purposes this is not good. Not to mention that the old registries are still on the drive. This is what will cause the drive to crash again.

C.  EraserDisk's low-level format is a factory style low-level format. It can first do a secure wipe of the drive by writing zeros to the entire drive not being limited to any partitions that other utility cannot see.

D.  Then to reinitialize the drive back to the factory specifications. Eraser-Disk will communicate with the drives command Register where the information exist to bring the drive back to the factory specs. zero.

The low-level format routine is what got Micro 2000 a GSA contract with the USA government.

Eraserdisk is certified DOD 5220.22-M standard.
