“I want to wipe the disc CLEAN with a 35-pass gutmann erasure.”
A little anal, aren’t you?
I just generally use the old breach action 410. Two shells, little data on that hard disc is easily retrievable except by that wierd chick with the goth hair on CSI.
I do have sympathy for the thread starter however. PCs are going the route of the airlines. Miserable experience each and every time — count on it.
A little anal, arent you?
Just like to be sure ...
I worked at MCI a long time ago. They did an upgrade to all of their switches - via CD sent to each site [a couple of hundred switches].
They used a custom CD replicator business to make the CDs from a master. BUT, unknown to them, an employee at the business MODIFIED the code on the master CD to include a virus.
EVER SINCE then, when I purchase a new PC, I COMPLETELY erase the HD and re-load with a clean OS!
