    I'm looking for a drive wipe app the will perform low-level wipes on external/USB drives. I do NOT want something bootable like Darik's Boot-N-Nuke, but similar functionality from within Windows. I know there's several apps that can wipe selected files/folders, and I suppose that would be OK, but it would be nice to just select Drive J: and do a low-level wipe in the background, and I could keep on computing in Windows while Drive J: gets wiped....
    Any links?

    Thanks!

    Yes, I can. But I want a low-level secure hardcore no-holds-barred crazy clean wipe.
    LOL
