But Rob, that leaves the data still on disk.   

What you need to do is DDR the disks to tape, then "data security erase"
the tapes, and then obviously -- restore the erased tapes to the disk.
Voila - no more data on disk!  Of course you'd need to restore from the
"data security erase"d tapes to disk several times to ensure that
multiple layers were re-written.

1st when you need it!?>

So, that leaves him the option to DDR from disk to tape, and then
"security erase" those tapes. ;-)
