HDD Low Level Format Tool

HDD Low Level Format Tool for Windows provides traceless erasure of all information stored on a hard drive or removable media. The application performs low-level formatting, which writes zeros to the entire surface of the data storage device. This method is used at the factory when devices are manufactured. It is not possible to recover deleted data.

Preparation

After starting the utility, the display will show information about the connected devices. The program is able to perform its functions when working with memory cards, USB flash drives, hard drives and other types of media. The user can get information about the manufacturer, technical parameters and model of the drive. In addition, the program provides information about the technologies supported by the device and the total memory capacity. Users have the option of viewing SMART logs, where the temperature of the drive, the number of bit, occupied and unoccupied sectors are recorded.

Formatting

After preparation, you need to specify the medium and start the formatting process. It is important to take into account that at the end of the operation the data will be irretrievably deleted. The speed of information erasure is determined by the total memory capacity. In the demo version of the utility, the formatting speed is limited.
