Sanitize
Sanitize permanently destroys all user data on the SSD.
Note:
Sanitize deletes the mapping table and erases all blocks that have
been written to on the selected SSD. This makes Sanitize a slower
“erase” option than the Secure Erase function (also see
Secure Erase).
Sanitize can only be performed on an SSD that is not the boot drive. However,
if the SSD is the boot drive, the Sanitize function can be performed from a
formatted USB. See Create a Bootable USB Drive with Sanitize.
Delete User Data with Sanitize
Note:
Ensure that the correct SSD is selected on a system with more than
one SSD. The Sanitize function permanently destroys all user data on
the selected SSD.
1. In the blue section at the top of the Dashboard, click the Select drive drop-
down menu to select the SSD on which all user data will be permanently
deleted.
Note:
If the SSD to be deleted is not listed, click the Refresh icon next to the Select
drive drop-down menu to scan for the SSD.
The name of the selected SSD appears next to Model.
