This method is effective on any SATA / PATA hard drive, including destroying hard drives from a system running Windows or any other operating system.
In this article we will discuss how to securely erase a hard drive before disposal. Since most people do not encrypt their drives someone can very easily pull all the data off of these old discarded hard drives. However, there is a real threat to someone getting there hands on your old hard drive.
