BCWipe from Jetico (http://www.jetico.com/) can be used to create any type
of wipe pattern, and so is quite a likely candidate.

Hi,

Has anyone come across wipe patterns such as these on a Windows host
(unallocated)?


76Tabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

83977Uabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxy z

83974Vabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

83975Wabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

83972Xabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

83973Yabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

"83970Zabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz






I have seem these consecutively on an Windows XP machine. It's obvious
that a wiping tool was used on the HDD.

Any ideas on which tool was used ?

Thanks in advance.
