The best tools write to EVERY byte on the disk MANY times, in random order, to minimize the possibility of anyone recovering the data. Rumor has it that a very well funded corp, or the govt, can still get some info if they put enough technology into it. The work you put into it depends on the consequences of someone finding the data. -- Thank you, rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
