Easy to use. does what it says

I only bought this for the disk cleanup feature, so I won't talk about the docking station or the receipt printing features. This, as they say, makes disc erasing easier. I use several smaller Samsung/WD Red SSDs ranging from 256GB to 512GB in a home lab set up to experiment with different filesystems. It completes the one-pass erase in about 15 or 30 minutes. Large discs take time. A single-pass erase of a 10TB Seagate Iron Wolf Pro drive takes approximately 14 hours.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Periodicity
