How long does this secure erase take? (on say a 32GB device)
I was under the impression the Erase All Content just deletes the
encryption keys. If it's just the encryption keys, couldn't the content be
resurrected?
I looked into product called iErase (by Zdziarski, so you know it's
good).Do you think that is needed, or is the "Erase All Content and
Settings" truly and overwrite erase?
