Darik's Boot and Nuke - (http://dban.sourceforge.net/) bootable CD and set
your options - works nicely. I have used it several times myself.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Recommendations for a DOD wipe of a RAID Array?

Greetings, 

I am trying to use Symantecs Gdisk with a /DODWIPE option to do a security
wipe of  a Compaq 7000's Raid Array, however using a dos boot disk will not
allow me to access the disk array. My work around on this was that I created
a 32 bit bootable CD-Rom using Bart's PE and I added the server's 32bit Raid
controller driver which now allows me to access the disk array. However
since it is running a 32bit OS, gdisk will not work as it is only a 16bit
program. When I try and use Symantec's Gdisk32 which will run, the /DODWIPE
option is not available. 

Does anyone know if Symantec has an updated version of GDISK32 that supports
a DODWIPE? Does any one have any prefered tools other then GDISK that they
can recommend that will work with my Raid Array?

Since there are some HP employees on this list, does HP have a recommended
tool they provide there customers to use on Proliant servers before
decommisioning them?

Sincerely, 
Jose Medeiros
