The Shinobi hard drive test & wipe station is a an efficient, high speed solution for any ATA or SATA hard drive (adapter needed for SATA). It is ideal for hard drive recycling, hard drive recertification, quality control testing and hard drive data security procedures. Several parameters are in place to create a process that fits the user’s needs, including SMART Test, Quick Test, Quick Wipe, Secure Erase and Test + Wipe options. No other hard drive tester or wiper on the market combines high speed hardware with a simple USB connection and flexible, in-depth software for hard drive quality testing and data security.

Hard Drive Tester

The Shinobi’s hard drive test & wipe station executes fast and efficient test functions for reliable hard drive quality assurance. The user can test the hard drive’s SMART logs directly against custom thresholds or run a hard drive manufacturer Quick Test for evaluating a hard drive to manufacturer specifications in only 1-2 minutes! This is the only hard drive tester on the market that combines high speed hardware and in-depth software functionality with automatic logging and reporting. It is a system designed by hard drive engineers for large volume hard drive recycling, recertification and quality assurance.

Hard Drive Eraser

The Shinobi hard drive test & wipe station performs multiple levels of hard drive erasing in order to meet the user’s balance of process speed and data security. Hard drive erase functions include a File Table Wipe function that takes less than 1 minute and a Security Erase function that overwrites every hard drive sector. Both functions can be programmed to run up to 99 times concurrently for added data security and sector overwrite characters can be easily entered by the user.

Overall Efficiency

The Shinobi hard drive test & wipe station was designed by hard drive engineers as an affordable, efficient and accurate hard drive test and wipe solution. The result is a user-friendly product that allows the user to quickly and accurately perform hard drive test and wipe functions at the click of a button while automatically recording log files for every processed hard drive. The Shinobi’s hardware form allows the user to perform any hard drive wipe or test function externally without restarting any systems or wrestling with difficult connections. No costly or time consuming training is needed to erase hard drives or run any hard drive test function. Any non technical user can operate this Shinobi hard drive test & wipe station with the help of the product’s user manual. Lifetime product support is available via phone, email and online message board.

Product Functions

Basic Features

• Works for any MFG ATA/IDE and SATA* 3.5" - 2.5" - 1.8" - 1.0" - 0.85" size Hard Drive
  (All PIO/UDMA Modes and Serial ATA Modes)

• Optional adapter needed for SATA hard drive support

• Requires USB 1.0 or 2.0 connection and windows 2000 or XP

• User friendly host software (can be operated by non-technical user)

Test, Wipe, and Repair Features

• Quick Test function for Hard Drive evaluation in 30-120 seconds.
  (Runs more tests in less time compared to leading software test programs (eg: Western Digital and Seagate software))

• Customizable SMART Test (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology)
  (Notes: Reallocation is a permanent repair measure per sector. Clip function may significantly reduce Hard Drive capacity)

• Low Level Format function for secure data erasure (1 time overwrite of each Hard Drive sector)
  (Set custom SMART thresholds to red-flag unstable hard drives (eg: set limit for Power-On Hours))

• Random Seek Test
  (Test mechanical functionality of hard drive by analyzing arm movements and seek time)

• Bad Sector Reallocation (Secure Erase function automatically reallocates bad sectors in order to prolong HDD life)

• Quick Erase function wipes file tables in less than 2 minutes (non-secure erase function)
  (Makes hard drive appear completely empty to computer system. Not recommended if sensitive data is stored on HDD)

• Secure Erase for full data security in compliance with the ATA standard for HDD erasure & data security
  (Overwrite entire hard drive sector area with programmable overwrite counts)

• Programmable Wipe/Erase Counts
  (Set Shinobi to perform any wipe/erase function to run concurrently for x amount of passes (unlimited))

• Combine any hard drive test & wipe function
  (example: Quick Test + 3-Pass Secure Erase can be programmed quickly and easily in the main software window)
