We all have heared of erasing a disk securely, when it should actually have said, erasing data from a disk securely.

Anyway, someone took the common expression word for word and really erased a disk and it goes like this.



btw. This also works with IBM / Hitachi HDD, as they use a glas substrate for the platters.

Have fun erasing your disks! :smiling9:

Nice found! :-)
But if you have a lot of drives, this works quicker! :smiling9:

Didn't knew, that private problems could still catch one, when riding a Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Special.
The newer models, really don't compare to the old ones. :lol:

Nice to hear, that you're fine.

:cheers:
