Hi Des,
Don't trust operating systems to be able to completely remove partition
tables and MBR. I recommend performing a 'zero fill' on drives when
switching O/S to completely overwrite/remove all hard drive information.
For scsi drives this may be possible via the scsi controller bios.
Alternately download your hard drive manufacturers version of DiskManager
to perform the 'zero fill'.
Regards,
