    A Dban caution

    Dban, a utility for wiping hard drives, mentions that it will wipe any drives it can see. I was clearing a hard drive on a laptop and forgot to remove the usb drive containing the Ultimate Boot CD that I was using to boot Dban. Wiped it too, confirming the warning.

    You're lucky.
    I remember some member(s) wiping out entire HDD by mistake!
    "I know nothing."
    Cheers.
