Although some intelligence agencies might be willing to put in the effort to recover fragmentary data from such disks, I doubt that corporate espionage or hackers would do so. The OP asked about DR sites. No one is going to remove any hard FBA or old SLED disks from any controllers and take them away to someone with the proper equipment to read data written before it was erased. There is no way that user (N+1) of a DR site can read user (N)'s data if user N erases it all by using whole track format write chains before leaving the DR site. But the magnetized molecules are there nevertheless for someone with enough authority to remove the disks and enough $$ to pay to have an expert decipher them. Corporate espionage normally does not allow for either of these two requirements, nor does corporate security normally require protection against these possibilities.
