  2. Device configuration overlay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_configuration_overlay

    To determine the actual size and features of a disk, the DEVICE_­CONFIGURATION_­IDENTIFY command is used, and the output of this command can be compared to the output of IDENTIFY_­DEVICE to see if a DCO is present on a given hard drive. Most major tools will remove the DCO in order to fully image a hard drive, using the DEVICE ...

  3. Data erasure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_erasure

    Disk overwriting programs that cannot access the entire hard drive, including hidden/locked areas like the host protected area (HPA), device configuration overlay (DCO), and remapped sectors, perform an incomplete erasure, leaving some of the data intact. By accessing the entire hard drive, data erasure eliminates the risk of data remanence.

  4. Host protected area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host_protected_area

    If the value in the register is set to less than the actual hard drive size then effectively a host protected area is created. It is protected because the OS will work with only the value in the register that is returned by the IDENTIFY DEVICE command and thus will normally be unable to address the parts of the drive that lie within the HPA.

  7. Gutmann method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gutmann_method

    The Gutmann method is an algorithm for securely erasing the contents of computer hard disk drives, such as files.Devised by Peter Gutmann and Colin Plumb and presented in the paper Secure Deletion of Data from Magnetic and Solid-State Memory in July 1996, it involved writing a series of 35 patterns over the region to be erased.

  8. Hetman Partition Recovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hetman_Partition_Recovery

    Hetman Partition Recovery is a shareware program for recovery of deleted data from hard drive partitions and other storage media. The utility supports both functioning disks and damaged logical partitions and recovers data from both reformatted disks and disks which have had their file system changed from FAT to NTFS or vice versa.

  9. Data remanence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_remanence

    Data remanence is the residual representation of digital data that remains even after attempts have been made to remove or erase the data. This residue may result from data being left intact by a nominal file deletion operation, by reformatting of storage media that does not remove data previously written to the media, or through physical properties of the storage media that allow previously ...
