This is where Donemax Data Eraser comes in handy.
Donemax data eraser is a windows and mac ios software application that allows you to permanently and selectively erase all data and folders from your computer, HHD, SSD, USB flash drive, memory card or any other storage device.

The app also allows you to erase free disk space of your hard drive to permanently delete already deleted files stored in your recovery bin.
How it works

The Downsides
There is almost nothing to complain about donemax data eraser. It seems to be on point as far as erasing data is concerned. However, the erasing process is frustratingly slow. It took me 7 minutes to delete a 1.2GB movie from my flash drive which is just a huge setback. The erasure speed complicates things.
Conclusion
The software is suitable for both personal and business use hence it is a good asset to own for those who dread their files being recovered behind their backs. However donemax has to do something about that erasure speed, it is a turnoff.
