You can actually use USB2SATA bridges as well if needed but they'll be slower. They should all begin with sd (s for SATA/SCSI, IDE shows up as hd), followed by an a, b, c, etc. That put a file at the root of you home directory that lists all attached drives. Using a tower, with an extra PCI SATA if needed, I'll boot to a Linux distro as root, any one will do as they all have the basic commands, and run fdisk -l > ~/before.txt. That whole 3 pass thing came about from comments made over 20 years ago about technology that hasn't been used in many years. After all you have to write to the entire drive surface.
Works well, but as I mentioned above, it'll take time. īut before I broke down and bought one this is what I did using Linux. Meaning you won't be able to knock 15-20 drives in a few hours.Ī number of members here, myself included, use. If you're looking to recycle/reuse drives there is no magic wand.
