I am going to use the Mac OSX Lion Disk Utility Erase tool because I am going to return a hard drive I already backed up on. I am concerned that the deleted items can be retrieved by some high end technology. Is the Erase tool on my Mac the kind of erase that permanently shreds all of my files or is it alway possible to retrieve them with the right tool?
