Having worked with computers since 1960 (IBM 7070 was a decimal-architecture intermediate data-processing system that was introduced by IBM in 1958. It was part of the IBM 700/7000 series, and was based on discrete transistors rather than the vacuum tubes of the 1950s. It was the company’s first transistorized stored-program computer)
I can say that any computer with storage memory can be wiped clean with no chance of data retrieval. There are scores of utilities available for anything in the world.
The very ability of memory bytes to store data makes it vulnerable to over-write it. The best you can retrieve is a date stamp of when the machine was last accessed. But that does not prove it was wiped clean and reloaded with clean software.
Might not even be the same machines.1

If the seized German server story is real, then it hardly matters. Trump has the proof already.
And if Trump's team didn't have the German server, then he surely would have sent the military in to take custody of the Dominion machines a long time ago.
Sure it can but it's not ever as easy as simply hitting the delete key. It typically requires a product like the now infamous Bleach Bit to overwrite the drives many many times, which is time consuming, and leaves a blank slate behind.
Did they Bleach Bit (etc) every system, and re-install, which would typically require touch labor? I doubt it.
But even if they did, my point was, with the amount of money Trump has in his stop the steal war chest, he should be able to hire forensic investigators equivalent to those who WROTE Bleach Bit to analyze these systems for mistakes, or proof of use. Specialists in this field of expertise, not just computer guys with decades of experience. Thanks.
The mere fact that they have been wiped, says they were up to no good.....they should be able to answer any question concerning the election...if they were straight.
Even easier to have clean legal software installed on replacement drives and swap them out. There are places where data is stored that is hard to get to but not impossible.
With respect to these machines, wiping is tantamount to tampering. And should there be a machine that is found to exhibit the fraudulent behaviors, then it’s reasonable to conclude the “wiped” machines were in fact wired for fraud.
