Smart and wipe disks

Project target : ultimately provide a way to diagnose and clear old disks before use.

It should be :

  • based on classic GNU/LINUX tools (smartctl, dd)
  • safe to use (never touch a mounted partition)
  • automatized for standalone operations

For now the project runs through a shell script that needs to be converted to python.

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

# sudo/root is required to operate smartctl  

$ sudo ./bin/main.sh
	

Roadmap

It needs to improve based on the sources in the src dir :

Known dependencies

- pip install pySMART
- pip install jsonpickle
