[Scott]

I have a Police department that is replacing a Xerox WC5335. The IT guy is wanting to wipe the hard drive can anyone here give me a play by play to get this done for them.

Thanks in advance
Scott

if he wants to wipe the data completely then your only option is drill a hole in the hdd cause nowadays even if you format the hdd there is still data that can be retrieved using a software data retrieval.
