You should be able to write zeros (completely erase) a hard drive through the manufacturer's utility. Find out what hdd you have, and visit their website. Look for utilities/support/downloads and you should be able to find the oem software to completely wipe a drive. It will take a while to write zeros to the entire drive, but you'll have the satisfaction of knowing nothing is left.
