    Hello!

    I'm getting ready to send a machine with disks back to the vendor, and
    wondered what the best way to scrub the disks was ?

    I found a utility called scrub, but it really wants to run on each file one
    at a time. What I was hoping to do was wipe the disk in one shot.

    The disk in question is an SSA Array in a D40 drawer.

    Obviously not the OS disks. :)

    Thanks!

    Michael
