Somehow I missed the notification for this.
According to the kernel docs, libata.ignore_hpa=1
should allow dban to destroy the data in there (but would not remove the HPA). I'd probably need to look at adding a function to the wipe menu to disable the HPA, then do DCO reset.
Regarding BSI the Host/Hidden Protected Area nor Device Configuration Overlay aren't wiped by default.
It seems that dban should be started with parameters like
to be ready to really eliminate the whole data on our magnetic disks.
Can someone confirm it? It would be cutting edge to add this feature to enrich dban be much more than just the tool of home data destruction!
Thanks in advance!
