This is a question i had for a long time.. with out a solution... how will
shred work on a disk subsystem? Does any body have experience with this .. i
mean on a disk array like Clarion or HP MSA .. these arrays usually do
not repeat the command in its intended purpose.. how do we successfully
use "shred"
on them??
SAN storage vendors implement data shredding as a part of their data
security feature set. The other security features are immutability, logging,
auditing, etc. These features are implemented in the disk controller itself,
and therefore they work as intended.
