If you wanted to securely sell on your hard disk, wouldn't it be a
good idea to format it then fill it to the max with MP3 so that any
attempt to `hysteresis' (or whatever was discussed) would find the
present data there?
Failing that, format, low-level format, take the platter out and
blowtorch it and then grind the chips with a lathe to make sure they
aren't Eeproms storing secret data!
:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
The biggest thing people overlook in this day and age is the common
CDR... people back up to a write-once medium then all their files are
stored on a disc with extreme error-protection.
A CD can often survive more than a hard disk platter!
Personally I would avoid backing up to CDR.
