Security Basics: RE: Hard Drive data security

["Leong Kok Wah Kenneth" <LeongKWKenneth () ocbc com sg>]

Hi, guys.

May I joined in the discussion?

Creative : 1. what software should we use to make a copy bit & bit of
data and what about if it is failing?
           2. won't these data after restoring into another drive fail
to boot-up the system if the 'bad' data is a system file, etc? 


Thanks
kenneth

You will have to make a copy bit by bit of your hard drive, then you
must use a software like Evidence Eliminator in order to delete your
data from the HD that Dell will take back.

Hi,
   I have a question about hard drive data security. The hard drive on
my notebook is failing and Dell is going to replace it. They are going
to take the old one with them. How can I securely remove the data from
the hard drive?

Thanks,
Paul
