   You can use Dban (Darik's boot and nuke) to wipe a disk/thumb drive
   clean of all data. It is free and open source.

   Can you take the disk(s) out and just wipe them? Other than that I
   don't
   know. I bought my Thinkpad refurbished and could choose one w/o any OS.
   I also told them it was important for me that the disk was clean from
   anything.
