Re: hard drive scrubbing utility



I was reading Joe's last comment and my understanding is less than
clear. If you can help me by explaining the following I would be
greatful. Joe stated, "Since there are several levels of abstraction
between the logical file system and the physical file system, you have
to make sure you are managing all these interactions correctly." Can
you help me by expanding these concepts further?

I would like to start an open discussion:

I have some ideas as to a method to scrub a hard drive on the fly. Of
course my ideas are just that, ideas. My ideas are subject to change
and hopefully we are able to come up with a reasonable method reduce
the need for the sledge hammer method of data theft.

First, my understanding is that the logical block size is
2048 bytes

Second, although a data can be retrieve for ever using a
Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) or Scanning Tunneling Microscope
(STM) ... This is what returned to after selling my IT firm...

Third, who cares! Most people look at porn, or are
attorneys, medical offices (Have you ever heard of HIPPA) If one of the
medical offices donates a computer and it ever opened a medical file
the doctor is screwed. CAN I GET AN AMEN BROTHER?

Fourth, The idea
If a file is written that is smaller than 2048 bytes then the file will
fit on one block of a hard drive.
Next write a program that when a user logs off the computers and the
computer then reboots its self and when rebooting a program is
activated. The program the writes the said file until the hard drive
has reached its capacity. When the hard drive reaches its maximum
capacity it then sweeps itself 7 times.

What are your thoughts as to this concept? If you use this idea in the
future please reference me (Jason Spalding)
