Dynamic Disks - virtual disks being used by:
-
Logical Disk Manager (LDM on Windows)
- Logical Volume Manager (LVM on Linux)
- Windows Storage Spaces (WSS on Windows)
Dynamic Disks are virtual operating system devices handling other physical disks and
emulating different types of RAID not on a hardware level, but on an operating system level.
These virtual devices are fully supported with KillDisk. These disks will appear in the disk
view as any other disks would, along with their component disks. When you launch an erase
operation on the virtual disk, you will see it reflected on the components disks as well.
