Nytro Cache Clear

> Nytro Cache Clear

> When you initiate a secure erase on a Nytro Cache drive, controller firmware offloads the entire content from the Nytro Flash modules onto the associated source VD. Secure Erase lets you clear the data that resides on the Nytro Flash module, so that any critical data that is being cached by Nytro cache cannot be destroyed.

> Right-click the Nytro Cache drive group, and select Erase Nytro Cache.

> This operation first erases the data in the Nytro Cache drive and deletes the entire Nytro Flash module.

> Events are logged to indicate the beginning and end of the secure erase operation. This operation is a high-level erase where Nytro Flash module erases its internal LBA mapping table so that any reads to LBAs get zero data. This does not obtain any progress information for secure erase operation.
