However, unfortunately neither will formatting the drive, either. Although formatting clears the drive's File Allocation Table and re-writes the track sector markers, the data itself isn't touched and can easily be restored by forensic recovery experts. Only wiping a disk using well-tested tools gives adequate protection. Grinding it into dust is even better.
