if you know how to make a boot usb or boot cd then you can use this software and use "Derek's Boot Nuke" tool. It will format anything but the data will be gone for good no getting it back

I'll give it a try on the other drives, but so far the only thing that works is that unlock wizard software.

I have used it before on a drive that both windows and Linux could not "see" reformatted with boot nuke and it worked great. Its now part of Linux PC, which as been build from spare parts some of which i got here. if i win this drive it will become part of that computer, would be way batter then the 2 40 GB hard drives i have now. Its free software so what do you have to loose.

Thanks for the tips!

I have used nuke before and also another I like is active kill disk... Just make sure people you know when it says it will destroy everything it's like what it says... So use the program at your own risk and the only one is responsible is the user who is using the software / program !! So good luck and take care :-)
