I have a customer finally replacing these machines! (YAY!) And they wanted the hard drives formatted. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Pull it out, stick it in a laptop and run a DOD diskwipe on it. Takes several hours to write all the patterns but when it is done no one except maybe NSA is going to get any data off that drive. You can also get an inexpensive adapter to connect it to the IDE buss in a desktop. Some newer laptops have a different buss for the hard drive. Might need an older laptop.
