Getting Rid of or Selling an Old Computer?

Your computer contains personal and private information about you. Before discarding your computer make sure you completely erase hard drive information.

Simple methods like deleting files, emptying the recycle bin, formatting the hard drive, and repartitioning the hard drive DO NOT securely erase hard drive data. These methods leave private data hidden but still accessible to others. Identity thieves target your personal information and can use it to steal your identity.

How it works

Securely erasing your hard drive is like recording over a movie on a VHS tape. The only way to delete the movie is to tape over it. Using WipeDrive is like finding a TV station that plays only static and recording that static over the tape.
