Re: HDD: 35 pass Guttman wipe on dban said by cerdan:Can the pros recover your data if you wiped the HDD using the 35 pass Guttman Wipe on dban before getting rid of it? The answer is no. 35 passes is mega over kill. Anything more then a 3 pass DoD wipe is over kill and a waste of time in my opinion. As single pass by a good wipe utility is more then enough. I like an use a wipe program called "Eraser". It has the standerd DoD wipe methods but I use the 1 pass "Pseudorandom" data wipe. It's faster and just as effective in my opinion.
