Failed to update disk property?

Hi Forum,

due to some installation trouble I wanted to clean up my two new WD20EVDS disks.

Therefore I used the tool Data Lifeguard Diagnostic für Windows in order to write zeros.

However, for both drives, regardless whether I use the full (complete disk) or the short version (only beginning and end) the tool throws the error message “Failed to update disk property” BUT everthing looks fine

I tried both IDE and AHCI mode - no difference.

What is the reason for this ? Anything to worry about  ?

Thanks and kind regards

Oliver
