Dear Lazywebz...

[bjarvis]

Got a recommendation for a standalone utility for wiping hard drives? My Dear Employer has sold a division of our firm to another so I'm wiping the drives of two racks of equipment before they are turned over to the new owner. A USB-based or CD-based autoboot wiping utility would be very, very useful. Any ideas?

From Bill: These are disk wipe utilities in the public domain with SourceForge.

Other sources, Hitachi, WDC, etc. have disk cleaning utilities.

Has anybody here or on G+ NOT said "DBAN" yet? :)
