![]() Some pc shops will save them for you, if you ask nicely. I test drives constantly, since I have a couple hundred pounds of used drives lying around. HDDScan is a favorite tool for testing drives. Then I put the clone back on the original. After 3 passes, I think it’s erased well enough for me, and thoroughly tested for speed and accuracy. ![]() I do a clone of each drive then erase and benchmark the original every couple months, just to truly check the health of the drive and to “freshen” the platter. I use Both the newest and older v.25 (which I prefer for fast and dirty erase and rough benchmark). When I erase entire drives, I am also testing it’s performance.
