Factory Reset

Factory Reset returns the Iomega StorCenter ix12 to its original state. This feature is useful if you give your Iomega StorCenter ix12 to someone else.
Quickly delete all data — permanently deletes all record of existing or deleted data, users, and passwords.
Securely delete all data — this option takes significantly longer, but provides an added security benefit by permanently erasing all data on the drives
to prevent recovery of existing or deleted data, users, and passwords. The secure delete operation renders all data irrecoverable.
You can use the factory reset feature only to erase the drives internal to the Iomega StorCenter ix12. You cannot use this feature to reset
any external storage devices that may be connected.
