How to securely wipe your ReadyNAS
Hi there, Since I saw a lot of people here on the forum asking the same question; how can I securely erase, delete, wipe my hard disk before selling, RMA etc and all the suggestions led to one gene...
I would say that it would be sufficient. If you do a factory default NetGear will not help you recover data. However if you're worried take the disks out and wipe them securely for that extra peace of mind
You can of course abort a factory default by powering down before the 10 minute countdown finishes. Only after the countdown or RAID mode choice would the disks be wiped by the NAS.
