All your information is still there even if you reformat a pro can find it. Someone who worked with my cousin did this (on purpose cause she was fired)(reformatted) and erased the hard drive but they did get it all back.
That's my suggestion. I don't mean to shout but
DESTROY THE HARD DRIVE!
In my mind it's 1) faster and 2) much more secure.
Plus you finally get to take a hammer to the dumb thing! LOL!
