Hi,

My knowledge on these issues is not the one of an expert, but insofar as
I've read, it is possible, through the careful use of consecutive overwrites
with random data in certain given patterns, to obscure the data beyond
recovery by hardware. Now, whether this is true or just a claim by people
who write this kind of software, I am in no position to assess.

--David.
