"Gets the job done"
Version: Darik's Boot and Nuke for floppy disks and USB 1.0.7
Pros
It is great for wiping any system with any problem, and writes over everything with 0's
Cons
Writing over tons of 0's obviously takes a long time so a long process will be expected, but it's well worth it
Summary
Just to biztastic who previously commented, this is a program that is intended to allow a user to wipe their computer from a flashdrive/floppy disk, and not to wipe your flash drive. If you would like to wipe your flash drive just highlight everything in it and right-click/delete it. This program is NOT a virus, and works great

"It does what it says it does, DBAN destroys data."
Version: Darik's Boot and Nuke for floppy disks and USB 1.0.7
Pros
It will destroy all data on a hard-disk beyond (or nearly beyond) the capabilities forensic analysis. I use Derik's Boot and Nuke when I buy used computers from thrift stores or elsewhere.
Cons
Can take several hours to a few days.
Summary
The bottom line is: If you are getting rid of, or aquiring a used computer, use DBAN. I mean, you could go for Evidence Eliminator, but you would have to pay $150 and EE is just a scam anyway. This is the real deal, just read the first review, lol.

"Very Misleading Title!!"
Version: Darik's Boot and Nuke for floppy disks and USB 1.0.7
Pros
This title is very misleading, it says it is for use ON Usb and floppy drives, and says it is FOR floppy disks and USB. I highly require a USB nuker and thought this was it, and nuked my hard drive thinking it was nuking my USB drive.
Cons
Basically this is a virus with a friendly title
Summary
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS if you need to nuke a USB or Floppy!! THIS WILL DESTROY YOUR HARD DRIVE DATA.

"With many uses I have to say how well it works!"
Version: Darik's Boot and Nuke for floppy disks and USB 1.0.7
Pros
My wife and I have used this product with good results.
The setup seems to be easy for us.Cons
One computer took a week of steady running,but it worked!
Patience is needed.Summary
I have used the product on old computers that I use for different reasons and
am satisfied that some of the 'old' cleanups make them useful and not have to
be thrown out and become hazards in many ways.
