Wipe Disk (Menu 2)

You may want to wipe the destination disk before use, especially when doing disk-to-disk
cloning. The TD2u provides three options to wipe a destination disk: a fast single pass wipe, a
multi-pass wipe, or a Secure Erase. Follow the steps below to specify the type of wipe

Explanations
When performing Disk-to-
File duplication the TD2u
requires each destination
disk to be formatted with
the FAT32 or exFAT file sys-
tem.
If the destination disk is
already formatted for
FAT32 or exFAT, the TD2u
uses this formatting
without overwriting any
existing files.
If the destination disk does
not have a usable file sys-
tem, the TD2u can format
one during duplication.
If the destination disk
appears to be blank, the
TD2u formats it without
any warnings.
The TD2u checks if any of
the destinations appear to
have been encrypted in a
way that TD2u can unlock,
and prompts you to unlock
them if they are not
already unlocked.
