[Hidden-tech] SOFTWARE TO WIPE HDD?

[Jan Werner]

My favorite software for nearly everything hard disk related, including 
backup, imaging, partitioning, virtualization and wiping, is Paragon 
Hard Disk Manager Professional.

The Personal version costs $50, the Professional version (which I use) 
has more powerful virtualization capabilities and costs $100. Both 
include wiping to DOD and other standards for hard disks and SSDs.  They 
sell the wiping program separately for $39.95, so if you want it, you 
might as well buy the full manager.

The personal version seems to be on sale right now for $34.95:

If your netbook is running Windows XP, you can get an XP only version of 
their hard disk wiping program for free.

Also, I have an old laptop to donate, if your guy can use it.
