Tool for Hard disk Shredding

[nadnerB]

DBAN (Darik's Boot And Nuke) is available on the ultimate boot CD.
I recommend this option.

+1 for DBAN. I recently used it to wipe a bunch of old drives before recycling them.

Yeah, DBAN works... or, you could get one of these!

DBAN if you want to use the disk again. An industry shredder if not.

But is that really Shredding? That's just writing a bunch of 1's and 0's. @art_of_shred suggestion is the only way to shred it. I'd think it the the client really required shredding they'd not be happy to find out you just erased it (even if to DoD standards).

That's kind of hostile, just posting a pic of a presumably loaded gun, with no context.

As I'm sure you're all aware, I'm a very hostile fellow!

I've had the privilege to shoot a few hard drives. You won't believe how satisfying it is.

[MattSpeller]

@coliver Ditto and could not agree more.

Simple option.. not nearly as much fun though:

You jumped the gun on that upload.

No @MattSpeller took care of that already.

@thecreativeone91 I'll have you know my trigger pull is extremely well practised, I don't jerk nor jump it
