Rating: - This software is useless!
Don't waste your money on this software. I purchased this software to erase a hard drive before donating the computer. I initially tried running this software from the hard drive after installing it. It would not run with all of the many little programs that Windows opens running. I then created a boot disk from the software and used it to boot the computer.

Rating: - Simple enough for a novice
This was a very simple process for someone who does not do this type of work on a regular basis.

I feel very confident that all of our personal information is off of the hard drive.

Rating: - Good product, instructions could be more detailed
For the average PC user, the instruction manual could be more detailed. Very little information included on reinstalling your operating system once you've used DriveErase to erase your hard drive. The software performed as promised, though, and offers several options, from fast/less-secure to extensive/super-secure. The instructions recommend which option to choose, depending on how the computer was used (home/office) and who will use it next (a friend, colleague or stranger).

Rating: - Excellent Product
This product worked perfectly. I had several computer systems that needed to be tossed or donated. I have used BC Wipe and other similar tools for electronic media sanitization before a friend recommended this product. I am glad he did.

The software comes with two discs. One disc is wrapped in a red CD sleeve. It is this CD that one must be careful of (red = warning). It is CLEARLY marked that if you insert this into the computer and reboot, it will ERASE your ENTIRE hard disk drive. ... Read More

Rating: - Did the job completely
The software worked for me. The software comes with a 30 day money back guarentee from the manufacturer, Nova. It also comes with free telephone and email tech support. If it didn't work, why would they offer a money back guarentee and unlimited support?
