There is another one that we have used. It is by NEWERA software and it is, 'DASD FAST ERASE'. It works good as you can do as many passes over the data with different patterns as needed. HTH.

I didn't see anything in the CBT archive for DASD, just some tape erasure programs. * * -- Mark Jacobs Time Customer Service Tampa, FL ---- Riley: Find the next number in the sequence: 313, 331, 367, ...? what? The Doctor: 379. It's a sequence of happy primes, 379. Martha: Happy what? The Doctor: Just enter it! Riley: Are you sure? We only get one chance. The Doctor: Any number that reduces to one when you take the sum of the square of its digits and continue iterating until it yields 1 is a happy number, any number that doesn't, isn't. A happy prime is both happy and prime. ---- Doctor Who episode "42" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
