Formatting a hard drive does not wipe drive!

Most people don't know that formatting the hard drive DOES NOT wipe drive. Your data is still there and is accessible to most file recovery programs. With WipeDrive you can completely wipe and format hard drives to get your computer ready to sell, donate, or throw away, or get rid of computer viruses that other programs can't. WipeDrive makes protecting yourself safe and easy.

Problem—Your discarded computer contains your personal information and formatting the hard drive or emptying the recycling bin will not erase the sensitive traces of your identity.

Solution—The only way to erase hard drive data is to overwrite your hard drive with random information using a product like WipeDrive.

Here's a way to understand how WipeDrive works—think of a video tape that has recorded TV shows on it. The only way to get rid of the old show is to tape over it.

Using WipeDrive is like finding a channel completely full of static and then recording over the entire tape. Use WipeDrive before getting rid of your computer to erase hard drive data and protect yourself from identity theft.
