'Spare memory cells can store a hidden copy of the data
Flash memory devices, such as USB sticks and SSDs (Solid-State Drives), have spare memory cells that are used to replace broken memory cells over time. Modern hard disks also integrate small flash memories for performance and reliability.
Any data that was stored in the device can remain available in these spare cells.
These spare cells are managed directly by the device and neither the user nor the operating system can control what is stored in them.'
Interesting. And good to know I guess.
