HD destruction

   We currently use an outside vendor to destroy our hard drives and
receive a document of certification this work has been completed.    Does
anyone simply have the HD's scrubbed and receive a certified doc and feel
this is sufficient?  I was led to believe in the past that you can still
recover data from scrubbed drives.



Thank you,
