Slightly OT : Disk wiping?

Hi, As my hard drive has to go back, has anyone got any recommendations for any good, free, disk wiping software? I don't want anyone seeing some of the data that I've got. Thanks, Grendel. This is the best one to use. It has a number of wipe methods you can use. Depending on the size of your drive it can take a long time too. The Guttman wipe method overwrites the drive 35 times and takes a very long time. If you just want to write zeros to the drive (low level format) it is fairly quick. http://dban.sourceforge.net/ |
