Darik's Boot and Nuke is the only way to be sure.

confirming dban as a good way to wipe a hard drive.

If you're not selling it and just trying to get rid of it, take it apart and smash/bend the platters. Much easier and good therapy.

Just don't wipe the drive if it's still holding your OS lol

I still have my OS on my media drive so I can boot if my ssd fails. To me, that's worth the space it takes up.
