Hi all,

I've got the job of wiping a lot of sca disks (about 4000!!!!).

What is the best way of doing a one pass wipe? No DOD wipe is required.

Available hardware is 2 Sun 711 12 disk cases and Sun or Intel servers.

Currently driving each 711 from an XP box and formating an NTFS
partition on each disk through drive manager.

Speed is of the essence because I'm being paid by the disk.

Any help would be appreciated.

Gary
