from the hard disk.

To delete the data and partitions from your hard disk:

On the Toshiba Recovery Wizard screen, select Erase the 
hard disk, and then click Next.

The next screen lists the two methods you can choose:

❖

Delete all data and partitions from the hard disk—This 
option deletes all of the data on the hard disk without 
overwriting the HDD.

❖

Delete all partitions and overwrite all sectors on the 
hard disk—This option deletes all data, then overwrites 
the entire HDD for security purposes. This may take 
several hours, depending on the size of your HDD.
