RE: complete "scrubbing" of our data from the disk

There's a good document from IBM on this, I don't have the link handy, but
i'm sure a consulting type person who deals with this on a more frequent
basis will probably be able to post it for you.  Anyone? ;)

If you're just throwing them out, the US Military standard is to pop
them open & smash the platters with a hammer.

We are going to get rid of some disks.  How do I do a complete
