In case you did not get paragon disk wiper on time, DBAN does a great job as well, and it is open source and free. Regarding on how good it is Paragon Disk Wiper, I have used the more expensive Professional Edition in the past and customization is excellent, you can even choose your own wiping pattern as well as half a dozen different algorythms, it beats DBAN in choices but it costs a whopping $150

 

DBAN is very good.

I also trust this freeware:

... Assuming this program's development continues. Otherwise, I would opt for DBAN.
