Hi, first time poster right here, i cant believe it took me this long to find a site with such good info and software.... hello! still, i have a question... i need to format/wipe this disc and i havent found a way to do it, i have tried with different wipers and nothing, they dont even start, i always get some type of error, WipeDisk says it is in Use Shredder just says its impossible boot and nuke -trial- acts like if it did it (but just for a split second) and they it says done and whatever but, yeah theres nothing wiped off... i have used some others and (all those that come in UBCD) the result is pretty much the same............ nothing! i have tried so many times, and had such a shitty fails that i decided to post this. i have failed so bad that the disk is still bootable as it was first handed to me. if it matters the disc is a WD Caviar SE 160GB I tried wiping having it as a secondary disk and also from bootable images, none seem to work.. so my assumption is that the disc is somehow protected for this type of actions, and i wanted to ask here (finally) if someone could help me out on this.... thanks. peace. |

I think it is more that there is minimal point in trying to repair a single drive if you don't care about the data... toss it and get a new one |
