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.
