- Looks like it's (useful) for SMR. Some companies (including Westerndigital) keep the fact that they are selling a SMR drive in the first place not very clear to the non business customer.A.B– A.B2021-08-02 08:14:40 +00:00Commented Aug 2, 2021 at 8:14
- If someone uses this and confirmed that the specific HD area gets blanked. Let me now! :) I will search later to confirm this. I guess I may use dump or something like that.WGRM– WGRM2021-08-05 04:10:32 +00:00Commented Aug 5, 2021 at 4:10

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
