Data Wiping

Tens · 18 Jan 2006 at 20:23

Just started work at a brand new company that have some clients with imoprtant info on the drives.
My job is to find some or the best software to do this and it be free software too.

Has to be the proper deal, dont want the obvious "just format the drive" because that isnt acceptable.

I use Killdisk to write zeros to the intire drive

you have to pay if you want DoD erase method though

no offence m8 but

"clients with important info " - it would be worth a few quid for a pro version after all it will work on many drives

but anyway
