How to clear the HARD drive for confidential data before attaching to the third party?

My HARD drive needs to be fixed and would like to know how to erase confidential data in the HARD drive before giving it to third parties.

Reformatted would it be sufficient?

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions

The best way in my opinion is using AutoNuke in Dban. Make sure you have the desired data off the drive hard until you execute Dban. Once you run it, it's over.

    As to where he is? It is a hidden partition on the hard drive, is usually not accessible.

    Cloning the hard drive can not return to that partition hidden - it would be a little bit the clone of the drive to work.
