    In order to erase your hard drive you will need to download or purchase a hard drive erasing software. You could go to www.eraseyourharddrive.com. And download a free version of the software or purchase it for less than 24 dollars. It helps you completely wipe out your hard drive thereby ensuring that your privacy is protected. It is very easy to understand and the software is very user friendly.

    Another feasible option is DBAN that is Derek's Boot and Nuke that is basically a self contained boot floppy that erases the hard drives of most computers. It will automatically delete any contents that it can detect and is therefore very good for deleting bulk data.

    Yet another software that can be used is WipeDrive. It will completely eliminate all hard drive information and promises to make your computer 'as good as a new one'.
    It is always advisable to delete your hard drive whenever you are selling your computer or getting rid of it for safety reasons.
