All of the following packages are approved by the United States Department of Defense for data erasure.Or any other wipe utility that wipes at DoD spec. However the most reliable solution is:
1. Remove Hard Drive
2. Reuse Hard Drive as second drive in new computer.
3. When old hard drive finally outlives its usefulness or fails remove hard drive again.
4. Strike with large hammer numerous times until it does not resemble a hard drive anymore.
Simple!
I don’t really buy whole new systems, mine is in a constant state of upgrade. I never throw out or give away a hard drives. Once there life cycle ends they are terminated with extreme prejudice.
