I was an Air Force contractor at the time and had much the same problem that you (probably) do. My solution was to develop a Linux based solution to do this. The advantage of this was it supports both SCSI and IDE disks and doesn't care what OS/Data is on the disk. There was also a document that dictated that for your needs you needed 3 passes to "clear" the data and for more sensitive needs require 7 passes to "sanitize" the disk. Many people that are familiar with disk technologies feel this may not be enough but to do anything with the data that may still be on the disk requires fairly expensive hardware and lots of time...
