DriveScrubber Reviews

Review by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder

DriveScrubber, by iolo technologies, LLC is a neat utility program that really cleans a hard drive. is the perfect solution for anyone who wants to really clean off a hard drive. Many users don't realize that when you delete a file it isn't actually gone. It's just not visible any longer.

A person with the right knowledge and the access could easily retrieve your data. So, while I was going to give the computer away I didn't want to do so with any of my data on it. DriveScrubber goes in and erases files so they can not be retrieved.

It doesn't just erase or format them, it wipes your hard drive clean! Ahh, but it has other uses as well. For example, say you just want to keep your computer secure and remove remnants of erased files, DriveScrubber can do that too.

You can set it up to wipe just the disk space that is free. That means that any traces of things you've erased are gone for good. The program has a number of configurable options and I always like that. I actually like DriveScrubber better than several similar products I've tested.

It's intuitive and easy-to-use making it perfect for users with all levels of experience. The program really gives you control over the process of cleaning a disk drive, be it a 300 gigabyte hard drive or a 4 gigabyte flash drive.

So, take a look at DriveScrubber, I recommend it.
