Disk partitions, tables, and more clean up RAID
Created by Solip on Wednesday 31 March 2010
To fully restore a hard drive (like state for new equipment, un-initialized), using Windows dispkart best tool.
It also resets hidden information on RAID volume, EFI partitions and remnants of GPT partitions.
This will start a one line prompt as an administrator and is a:
diskpart
list disk
The hard disk should be clearly indicated.
select disk 2
clean
Sets the hard drive 2 back in full.
Then you call the Disk Management:
- Start
- -> Administration or -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools
- -> Computer Management
- -> Disk Management
It follows the call to initialize the new hard disk and partition / format.
