We all need to securely erase a drive here and there. On Windows, there's a very simple way to do this. This method will re-write the entire drive with zeros, so that the underlying data is overwritten, and this makes it extremely difficult (usually impossible) to obtain any of the data.

Here are the commands:

1. Open command prompt as administrator
2. Type: diskpart
3. Type: list disk
4. Find the disk you wish to erase on the list
5. Type: select disk and then the disk number
6. Type: clean all
7. Wait several hours until it is finished
