Erase SED Drives: The application will be able to erase drives that are password protected with supplied passcode.The user must insert the passcode in the Security Erase setting before running the erase operation. Erase Drives with ATA passcode: The application will erase drives that are password protected with supplied passcode.R.2 compliance: With the use of the unit' port calibration utility.

The "User" erase mode is NIST compliant only when the user enables the full verification option.

NIST Compliance: Security Erase, Enhanced Security Erase, DoD erase, Sanitize, and NVMe erase protocols are all NIST 800-88 compliant.NVMe Security User Erase (for drives that support it): It is the same as SATA Security Erase.It is similar to the "Crypto" Erase mode of Sanitize or Enhanced Security Erase. NVMe Security "Crypto" Erase: (for drives that support it) it fills the drive after the erase using random data, so the user cannot run an Erase Verify after the erase.NVMe Erase Mode: Supported by NVMe SSD."Crypto" Erase: The drive f/w encrypts the data and throws away the encryption key.Block Erase: Similar to SATA Security Erase.Erase: It rewrites the media with a selected fill pattern (It is the same as a regular erase).Sanitize Erase Mode: Supported primarily by SAS SSD.(The final pattern of the data that will be written on the drive, the number of erase iterations, and the verification mode: none, complete, partial, all of which is randomly verified up to 10% of the areas on the drive). "User" Erase Mode: The user can define the erase parameters.The Enhanced Security Erase mode writes pre-determined data patterns (set by the manufacturer) to all the user's data areas, including sectors that are no longer in use due to reallocation. It is the recommended erase mode for drives that are supported by this mode. Enhanced Security Erase Mode: It is very similar to the Security Erase mode.It has a built-in verification process (it is supported by SATA drives that MFG after the year 2000). It is the most efficient operation and saves time from running the entire DoD erase with eight erase iterations. The erase operation overwrites all the user's data areas with binary zeroes. Security Erase Mode: It uses the internal firmware of the drive to perform internal drive erases.DoD Lite 5220-22M (E) Mode: It used three passes/iterations to rewrite the drive and use the last 4th pass/iteration for complete verification.
