3.3 Media utilities (traditional media)
Accessible from the Sources, USB Accessories, or Destinations buttons at the bottom
of the Home screen (and all locations that provide drive lists), TX1 provides the
following media utilities for all traditional media types (mobile devices excluded):
• Content breakdown
• Wipe (destination/accessory only)
• Format (destination/accessory only)
• Tableau encryption management (create/write on destination only; unlock on
source/destination/accessory)
• Encryption unlock (source or destination; Opal, Bitlocker, APFS)
• HPA/DCO/AMA disable (ATA drives only)
• Blank check
• Browse filesystem
• SMART (ATA drives only)
• Export (iSCSI target)
• Eject
Note: Mobile devices connected to TX1 have host system interactions and
capabilities that are very different from traditional media devices (HDDs,
SSDs). The media utilities listed above are specific to traditional media devices.
See “Mobile backup acquisition” on page 152 for information specific to that
type of job.
3.3.1 Content breakdown
The Content Breakdown utility is available for all mounted drives and offers a
unique perspective on drive geometry that is quite intuitive and powerful. This
screen provides a physical map style overview of the selected drive and all its
partitions and filesystems. Tapping on each element (rectangular box) of the drive
map provides basic information about that element and allows further exploration.
Note that, on the right side of the screen, the selected element from the map is
always shown at the top, but the parent element information is also shown below
the selected element.
Drive and Partition elements include sector related information (sector size, sector
count, and, for partitions, the starting sector) as well as a View Hex button which
opens a window that shows the selected drive or partition hex data on a sector-by-
sector basis. The screenshot below shows the drive Content Breakdown screen for a
drive that has multiple partitions, with one of its partitions selected.
