I got one machine from a local medical center with all sorts of notes

I've received HDs containing patient data several times. Each time I
contacted the *patient*, not the seller.

heh. Our home phone number is a logical transpo of a local doctor's
office. Once or twice a month, we get their faxes, usually from one
particular insurance company. The faxes include all sorts of patient
information, always with full names and addresses, often with SSN etc.
We have contacted patients, doctors and that company --- yet the faxes
keep coming.

Our old voice phone number was one off from a local lumber company. Most of the calls were if they were open. I was awful tempted sometimes to give them the wrong info.


I then format the drive, I don't bother zeroing it, that's a waste of
time.

And how exactly do you format these modern IDE and SATA drives?

High level format as if you didn't know.
