Bizhub 423,552, C25 HDD wipe and size

[Geo]

Hi All


I need to completely wipe the HDD on a Biz Hub 423,552 and C25. ( a little hand holding please, not a Biz hub junkie)

1) Can I do a complete wipe from the op panel, if so how?

2) What size HDD do they take and can off the self ones be used (thinking of doing a swap)
Thanks for the help.

Firts of all what is the purpose?
To reuse or for security?

Hi allan
They are going back to the leasing company and the customer wants the drives "wiped" ..So I guess for security.

Thanks...

One way is to do a physical format. But with some effort data can be recovered.

The recommended way is to overwrite all data.
Under utility->administrator->security settings ->HDD/SSD settings -> overwrite ALL data.
I believe a user manual would cover this.

The C25 does not have the overwrite function. But can be formatted from from -> sys default menu -> HDD format all.
Or remove the drives and use a computer to overwrite them.

Last time I ran overwrite all HDD data I ended up with a d012 code.

Does anyone know how to run overwrite and leave the machine running?
