Selling Biz computers - how to wipe hard drive completely?

    I'd like to completely wipe the drives of business computers before I sell. (Because of the small possibility that someone with data recovery software might buy the computers and recover commercially sensitive info.)

    Any ideas about the best software to ensure my hard drives are wiped clean before selling?

    Thanks :)

    Making sure you erase your hard drive properly is really important. There are good software programs and bad ones, but I have actually made a list of some of the best programs for erasing your hard drive completely. I personally like privacy controls a lot but evidence eraser is ok too. winclear actually has a bunch if different levels of file shredding you can use.

    Best software for erasing your hard drive.
