Hi Don,
this is a program I use to wipe hard drives:

http://dban.sourceforge.net/
"Darik's Boot and Nuke ("DBAN") is a self-contained boot floppy that=
 securely wipes the hard disks of most computers. DBAN will automatically=
 and completely delete the contents of any hard disk that it can detect,=
 which makes it an appropriate utility for bulk or emergency data=
 destruction."

install your favorite utility on the MASTER drive and use it to delete all 
partitions and then format the slave drive with Ubuntu on it.

Somebody mentioned a utility that will totally obliterate the data on all 
drives installed in a computer.  Put it on a floppy or CD or Thumb drive=
 and 
run it.  Will someone jump in with the name of the utility please?
