Wipe data

Wiping data is a process which allows users to completely erase data from a disk. When data is wiped, the sectors of the disk where files and folders were situated physically are rewritten with zeroes (the data can't be recovered) in contrast to a process of ordinary files deletion when only the pointer to the file in the file allocation table is deleted (files in this case can be restored).

Testimonials and User Comments

One of the drives in my raid array (which is my system disk) got a broken connector. Turns out Serial ATA connectors are as weak as crap. Anyway. Luckily, I had made an image using Acronis True Image 7.0. Western Digital replaced my drive, but then I had to hold my breath and HOPE that Acronis True Image would restore correctly. Well, the whole process was painless and worked like a charm. Especially impressive because I restored from an external USB 2.0 drive. Thanks! If I would have had to RE-install all those programs, and REset all those preferences, etc. it would have been a Nightmare! Thanks for making a product that does what it’s supposed to do. And I didn’t have to install .net framework! or whatever it is, like Drive Image would have forced me to do.
