What is Mac Data Erasion

 

“Disk Utility”, a free Mac OS X application, provides the erase function for users to release Mac disk space. By default, the utility does a quick erase (just removes the disk directory and replaces it with a new empty copy) to target disk partition. As a result, the existing data will stay on its original place until it gets overwritten. In other words, when faced up with the case, it is not necessary for users to be panic even if useful files are erased mistakenly.
