WDe may do that . However, it's no cmdline tool, but interactive:

- launch WDe, using the disk# as argument, i.e. "WDe 0"
- press F6 ( functions )
- press F2 ( fill )
- enter the pattern you want to fill the HD with

After you entered the no of sectors to be written, WDe starts, without further confirmation. The write process tells its progress and can be aborted at any time. Good luck .
