I'm about to sell a few 3TB and 4TB external USB 3.0 hard drives. I know there are tools out there to write zeroes to securely wipe drives, but if I did that on drives of these size, it would take days. What tool/process can I use to quickly and securely erase these disks?

To COMPLETLY wipe, you need to put data on and erase multiple times... I don't think you'd want to cut corners on your privacy. Unless you NEED to ship them out tommorow, I reccomend waiting..
