Have you ever thought about how much personal information your computer holds? Credit card numbers, bank account transactions, and balances; and so much more! What can you do when you want to upgrade without all your personal information falling into the wrong hands?
Use hard-drive wiping software, which will overwrite your information with random ones and zeros.
According to the experts, you have to back-up everything that you want to keep (install on the computer or hard drive), and then run hard-drive wiping software, which will overwrite your information with random ones and zeros. The following programs are recommended by IT professionals for this task:
Active@KillDisk – a free hard-drive eraser that overwrites using zeros. This program can be upgraded to a professional version that conforms to U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) standards.
WipeDrive – overwrites your data as many ties as you like and runs a verification test.
