Hello and Merry Christmas to all!
I am wiping a hard drive using Killdisk Pro. After the 1TB disk is cleared to zeros and the disk is refreshed I show 80h and unallocated. Ctrl+S shows zeros on both of them. Why is there both the 80hn and unallocated?

My next question is after I install Win7 Home Premium and I return to Killdisk it shows 80h,unallocated,system reserved (1:)Local disk (2:),unallocated. What and why are all these created when installing windows?

Thanks,
Butch
 
No I'm afraid not. But those are not suppose to be smiley faces they should be : )
 
Looks like this after win 7 install
80h
unallocated
system reserve (1 :)
local disk (2 :)
unallocated


looks like this after zeros written to disk

80h
unallocated
 
Probably for alignment. However without a screen shot its hard to help.


You can't do an Alt-Print Scrn or Shift-Print Scrn and paste that into paint and upload that on some free picture site?
