[QUOTE="DMP21, post: 1900319, member: 410338"] Hi vansmith, Thanks for the feedback, I would like to give Secure Erase a try and see that will fix it. However before I do that I would like to make an Image snapshot of the drive just in case, per the 1st screenshot. Problem is that this fails, see 2nd screenshot..??.. I have no idea what is going on with this system, the operation is just, well, cancelled. The strange thing is that there is no error msg that I could search for related issues or report on. I will do some searching in the forums and Google but I'd like to get an up to date Image before I go and wipe the system... Call me paranoid but I'm sure if I don't somethings going to go awry .... Thanks again for taking the time to reply with your ideas. [/QUOTE]
