    I have used BCWipe http://www.jetico.com/index.htm#/bcwipe.htm and have been
    happy with it.

    Subject: wipe utilities
    
    
    I am looking to draft a corporate policy requiring all hard drives to be
    wiped before being decommissioned, sold, donated, etc.
    
     The wipe utility must be able to make numerous (up to seven) uninterrupted
    passes and support a wide array of file systems (fat, ntfs, etc). 
    
    Also, the software must support the ability to assign a particular hex
    character as the wipe character.
    
    Could anyone recommend some products? I currently use wiper for my forensic
    investigations and am very happy with that but I want to provide our IT
    group with several other acceptable options.
    
    Thanks, D
