Disk Wipe Methods

[Dustin Decker]

Howdy all,
I have an intersting project on my plate at the day job.  Once in a blue 
moon (prolly more like each full moon) we overnight a 30GB Iomega USB 
drive to a client, they put a backup of their database on it (between 4 
and 10 GB) and ship it back to us.  

Eventually, the drive will be sent to another client.  We're dealing with
personally identifiable information in the health care mode here, so in
the interest of avoiding a HIPAA snaufu I'm quite serious about ensuring 
that there aren't any traces of the previous clients' db on the drive when 
it ships.  I've been making use of BCWipe on the Windows platform to 
accomplish this to the DoD 5200.28 standard, but I'm interested in 
throwing this on a Linux box to get it done as this is an extremely time 
consuming process.  (Would prefer to start it on Linux and walk away.)

Any suggestions on utilities in the Linux world that can do this?
Dustin
