Default Formatting hard drive
I have PC note book which I want to sell. Before selling it I want to clean out hard disk. It has some hardware issues, so not sure it will connect to internet. I already switched to mac.

What is least technical way of doing it? I think D-Ban is popular here. Are there any commercial softwares? How are erasor or window washer?
