The Hammer™ enables a Secure Erase command that purges digital data on up to four harddrives simultaneously, or links with USB hubs to manage dozens of drives.

Native ATA Secure Erase Support
The Hammer™ reliably purges data from up to four harddrives at once.
They can be put back into service immediately.

Secure Erase is a native feature of The Hammer™, ensuring uninterrupted erasure of all data stored on the media. In the event an attached drive does not support the secure erase command, data will be completely overwritten by automatically calling the embedded version of CPR Tools' award winning BangDisk™ utility. This ensures compliance with NIST 800-88 and 800-36 guidelines for data 'purging'.

Sector-by-sector cloning:
Once each connected device is erased, automatic partitioning and formating, or cloning from a pre-determined 'master disk' can take place, making a sector-by-sector clone from one attached drives to the other three.

Over-riding interruptions
Once started, SECURE ERASE will complete, even if interrupted by disconnecting power. Once SECURE ERASE has been initiated, the drive is not usable until it completes. In the event the drive is connected to a host system before SECURE ERASE finishes, the host will not recognize the drive, thereby keeping prying eyes away from any remaining user data. Restarting the Hammer™ will complete the process after interruption.
