Yes I agree, this is the classic use case for Linux. Company tossing
some older once beefy hardware. Many times Linux can bring new life to
the aged/vintage hardware, and tended to have rather decent performance.
As for the problem of proving hard drives have been wiped. The most
common method would be via commands, dd, shred, others, if its running
Linux or using a Linux livecd. For something straight forward could use
like dban[1]. You can save the command log and/or output to a file and
create a report based on that data. That hopefully will suffice,
depending on what they are seeking in a report showing the medium has
been wiped of any data.
