Only way you can securely wipe it is to take the drive apart. Separate the platters and then take steel wool or some other abrasive, and scuff the hell out of both sides. That will make them completely unreadable by anything.

Eraser is good. Get an older version though. Worst is Evidence Eliminator, I've had a few hard drives that shat the bed because of the horrible way it works.

Yep. I laugh at all those retards that think you have to write 32 different random bits. If you are going to go that far, just spend your money on an industrial shredder and make shrapnel out of it.

Even if this was true (and it's not), this would be a multi-million dollar procedure. No agency short of the NSA or CIA would even consider such an expense unless you are considered a terrorist and a direct threat to the presіdent of the United States.

You fucked up conspiracy loons are funny.
