Passport Ultra Delete Everything What happens?

Hello, has anybody tried to delete everything from the drive and seen what happens? (Including the hidden cd partition.) Does WD offers an image to recover such a clean drive to a “factory new state”? Best regard

Hello, you can delete any files from the main partition, but the virtual disk partition cannot be removed. 

Does WD offers an image to recover such a clean drive to a “factory new state”?

This question is still open.

Are there any risks, if I change the partition table type to GPT?

Does the hidden VCD image influence the boot behavior from the disk?

Hello again,

The virtual CD cannot be modified in any way, it wont let you format it or change the format type, it is made like this so you don’t lock yourself out of the Passport permanently in case you use password protection. The VCD should not affect the boot behavior in any way.
