Re: HD Deep clean?

The only way to realistically remove all data is to write the entire disk with 1's and 0's and do this at least three times to remove all magnetic traces of the data that are left. Once would be enough to stop the average person from accessing any data but not enough to stop the determined chap who knows what he is doing.
