One of the drives has an issue with bad sectors, so I want to replace it, but what do you do with removing the drive from a 4 drive raid 5 array before sending it?
IE should you wipe it first before sending? How do you do it normally? Using Qnap NAS.
Never had this issue before so not sure on normal procedures.
Cheers
ShredOS, lovely little USB boot system that you can use to wipe a drive like that. I would usually go with a 3 pass cleaning. Another option can be to use something like veracrypt to do an in place whole disk encryption that’ll make anything on it unreadable.
