[kwlug-disc] Securely wiping zip disks?

[Charles M]

Oh no LS-120 disks (and drives) were far worse. Loved the idea of a floppy
drive that accepted standard 1.44MB floppies and 120MB LS120 disks, but zip
disks and drives were way more reliable. I returned 3 x new LS120 drives
before I got one that didn't chew disks...
