Hello everyone. I have a stack of various, rack mountable, Synology NAS devices from which I need to purge all data prior to disposition.
After coming across the link below, I found the third response, posted by "Dune7" on 2/22/20, to be quite helpful.
Does anyone know if Synology's "Secure Erase" feature officially complies with any U.S. federal data sanitization guidelines, such as those from the NIST or DoD? If not, is it possible to boot a Synology NAS to, say, an Ubuntu USB drive, to wipe the hard drives via the dd command?
Thank you for your time.
