Hello,

I wanted to write zeros on usb and proof it.

I tried to write zeros on kingston usbdrive few times using:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512

in  30489408
out 30489408

to proof everything is zero I found this on the net:
sudo dd if=/dev/sdb | hexdump -C | grep [^00]

It outputs a red number "3a2768" (I think this is for nonzero besides from the zeros)

Output "redcoloured":

00000000 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 "|................|
*
3a2768"000

Does anyone know if this should not be or be there?
