Free Space On Drive Purging
Since Acronis 2011 i´m using acronis drive cleanser to purge the free space on my drives to get rid of the informations left on the drive.
But after Acronis 2012 it seems to not work properly anymore. After chosing the purging standard the cleaning takes now only 10 seconds. I can not believe that it was done correctly even when Acronis tells me "ended successfully".
In 2011 the cleaning of my drive D: took several hours and now it should be done within 10 secs?

The behavior is reproducible in 2013. Selected DoD method to clean 100GB free space, took less than 15 seconds.

Hello James,
I was unable to reproduce the issue.
Do you have NSB backup or another task running at the moment? And is remote access to your system possible?
Thank you.

Oleg,
No NSB or other tasks running.
I started a new post in the beta forum with more detail. http://forum.acronis.com/forum/33810
