Abstract
A method of data clearing of a hard disk comprises search a last target logic block of a target hard disk according to a predetermined sequence. Stored data in the target logic block is read for determining whether the stored data includes disk array information. The stored data of the target logic block is cleared while the stored data includes the disk array information. By accurately clearing minimum data, a data clearing process of the target hard disk is completed. By comparing with the full disk format manner, an effective of data clearing is improved. An apparatus and a computer readable storage medium applying the method are also disclosed.
