Deleting data from your storage drive

Some of the data stored on the storage drive might be sensitive. Handing your computer over to someone
else without deleting the installed software, such as operating systems and programs, might even violate the
license agreements. Be sure to delete data stored on the storage drive before you dispose of, sell, or hand
over your computer.
You can use the following methods to delete data from the storage drive:
Move the data to the Recycle Bin, and then empty the Recycle Bin.
Format your storage drive, using the software to initialize it.
Use the recovery program provided by Lenovo to bring the storage drive back to the factory default
settings.
These operations, however, only change the file location of the data; they do not delete the data itself. The
data is still there, even though it seems to be lost. Thus, it is sometimes possible to read the data by use of
special software for data recovery. There is a risk that people of bad faith might read and misuse the critical
data on storage drives for unexpected purposes.
To prevent leakage of data, it is important that you delete all the data from the storage drive when you
dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer. You can destroy the data physically by smashing the storage
drive with a hammer, or magnetically by means of strong magnetic power, thus making the data unreadable.
But it is recommended that you use the software (payware) or service (pay service) developed for that
purpose. The process might take several hours.
For disposing of data on the solid-state drive, Lenovo provides the Drive Erase Utility for Resetting the
Cryptographic Key and Erasing the Solid State Drive tool.
Some computers might support a Encryption solid-state drive and have such a drive installed. You can
logically dispose of all the data on the drive in a short time by erasing the cryptographic key. The data
encrypted with the old key is not physically erased but remains on the drive; however, it cannot be decrypted
without the old key. This feature is also available with the Drive Erase Utility for Resetting the Cryptographic
Key and Erasing the Solid State Drive tool.
