Hey Kosta,

i´ve used your nice tool to wipa a 1,8TB HDD Seagate on Windows 10 v20H2 (Biuld 19042.1586).
The disk got filled randomly twice, but verification failed.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>cmd /K D:/downloads/lethe.exe wipe --blocksize=4k \Device\Harddisk1\Partition2

Device           \Device\Harddisk1\Partition2  

Size             1.82TB  

Scheme           Double random fill, 2 passes  

                 - random fill

                 - random fill

Block size       4.00KB

Verification     Last stage only

C:\WINDOWS\system32>
C:\WINDOWS\system32>

• Keep progress snapshot
• Handle SIGTERM
• Store/load checkpoint
• Resume from checkpoint
• Extend UI
• Update docs

Investigate the possibility of issuing Secure Wipe ATA command(s) for SSDs after normal fill/validate stages.

Currently the app will notify the user if the application is not running with elevated privileges. A better UX could be to actually request these privileges automatically using application manifests.

Sadly, rust does not currently support this. Relevant ticket in rust-lang: rust-lang/rfcs#721

There's a way to workaround that: https://crates.io/crates/winres
Should be simple enough to do for local builds. The potential challenge is the CI.

@Kostassoid Hi. I want to add a customized verification process, I've introduced new command line argument and the process should be if I send 20 the verification will be completed at 20% instead of 100%. So everytime if I send some number the verification should take place upto that count only not 100%.
Where do I need to make the change? Can you please guide a bit about the class or method where it is appropriate.
Thanks.

I've tried lethe list and it prints empty line on terminal. I've macOS Big Sur installed, What could be the issue? Can you please help?

I'm using Intellij and VSCode but I was unable to figure out how to build a 32 bit exe. Can anyone help me in this issue?

Can we achieve NIST data wipe technique using lethe or by modifying the existing schemes?

I've 3-4 external drives connected, When I initiate the wipe on 1 drive it starts wiping and when I start another process of LETHE and try to wipe the other drive it gives error "Unable to enumerate storage devices". How I can use it to wipe multiple drives?
The -l (list) command also doesn't work.
This is the error I get when I try to wipe the other drives if some are already in progress.
Unable to enumerate storage devices. : Cannot open device \?\Volume{7e6adb17-0000-0000-0000-100000000000}.:
