Securely Wipe Files or entire disk

    Looking for some good recommendations for some free software that will allow you to

    1. securely delete files so as they will be more difficult or even impossible to recover?

    2. Also something that will securely wipe the entire disk?

    Normally if I'm binning a disk I just drive a drill bit through it but there are occasions where I might pass on an unwanted disk to a third party. I have used DBAN & Sure Delete in the past but Sure Delete is no longer being updated by it's author.

    All recommendations welcome :)
