Giving away my old laptop.

[24788]

Is it best route to just give away the laptop without the hard drive? I don't want someone going through my personal information after I give it away.

If I'm not mistaken, you can install CCLeaner which is free and it can wipe your the shit from your hard drive's ass **** N span clean

Download Secure Erase....it's a dos utility that will effectively erase the hard drive.

You can just send your laptop to me as is. Don't worry, I'll delete all your private information when it gets here. :yinyang:

Not a bad idea, esp. in this day and age. I suspect you would have to deduct from actual sale price??
