I don't like to advertise on the listserv, but since UHC is already a T-REX customer, you might want to check out our Xtinct product. It will wipe data (make it Xtinct!) on tape and/or disk.

We have the need to erase any residual data on some stacked backend vsm tapes. I've heard you can do this with FATS/FATAR but wondered if there is any other method to do this? Everything else I have seen seems to require the tapes be added to your tape management system and even then there is some doubt that this will work.
