Definitely deleted: How to guarantee your data is truly gone before recycling old PCs and drives

Deleted files can often be recovered, and that's a problem when you're passing
your PC or PC-related tech along to someone else. Whether it's sensitive
financial data, business documents, or scandalous photos that could be used to
blackmail you, you probably don't want people getting their hands on your
private stuff.
