Enter. Select Toshiba Recovery
Wizard, and then click Next.

3 Choose one of the following options on the Erase the hard disk
screen:
❖ Delete all data and partitions from the hard disk—This
option deletes all of the data on the internal storage drive
without overwriting the drive.
❖ Delete all partitions and overwrite all sectors on the
hard disk—This option deletes all data and then
overwrites the entire internal storage drive for security
