Hi, I´m looking for a hdd formatting tool that can formats specific
partitions or whole hdd´s with the press of one button? The formatting
should be a low-level format (i want it really non-readable) .

Regards

As you cannot specify enough detail with one button, this
does not and cannot exits.

Ah, you do not mean format, but overwrite. Format is filesystem
creation and does not erase (all) data. Note also that modern
HDDs do not support low-level formatting.

Still, one button is not enough. Seach through the history of
this group, the question is answered about once a week.

He presumably means one button for each partition and another for the entire hard drive.

Use Windows Disk Manager. For a quick but secure erasure use HDDErase,
and, if your drive doesn't support the secure erase extension or for
greater peace of mind, use DBAN.
