Performing A Clear Physical Disk And Cancel Clear
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
Select the Clear Physical Disk task to erase data residing on a physical disk. The Clear task applies to physical disks that are in Ready state and that contain data or that are in Clear state.
NOTE: A physical disk
may display the Clear state if it is a member
of a virtual disk that is being slow initialized. Performing a Cancel Clear task on the physical disk causes the Slow Initialize task to be canceled for the entire virtual
disk.
To clear the physical disk:
- Review the physical disk to be erased. Ensure that it does not contain necessary data and make a backup if necessary. If you want to blink the physical disk, click Blink button.
- Click Clear when you are ready to erase all information on the physical disk. To exit without clearing the physical disk, click Return to Previous Page.
