I used to work for one of those government 3 letter organizations. They used dban to wipe drives that were put back into production. This was in a closed environment and anything outside had to be physically destroyed.<br>

Okay, so I'm cleaning up some old hardware before getting rid of it.<br>
Anyone care to comment on dban or other solutions for erasing the hard<br>
drives? I don't want to destroy the hardware, just erase the data. I'm<br>
not concerned with what the usual government 3 letter organizations can<br>
do, just your average cracker out in the wild.<br>
