Iodd seems to be adept at making clones of other company’s products (see Zalman). This one may be a clone also, though it’s hard to know. The ST300 drive enclosure is something of a unique product. It’s an external drive, yes, but when you place CD image files in a folder named _ISO, you can internally mount up to four virtual drives and boot from them. This is great for installing operating systems as it’s the standard format for these. Today, I take a look.
The conventional methods of destroying data on a disk all relate to connecting the drive physically to a computer and using some sort of bootable media with an application on it to destroy data on the connected hard disk in a secure manner. This is the conventional way. I wanted a method that would be faster and more versatile than this, so I attempted to look for a free way to destroy data securely on an externally connected USB disk in Windows.
