Thanks for such prompt responses, David, Claude, Mark, Ed, and Hal. I neglected to mention that the DS8100 is no longer attached to a mainframe and that we no longer have a CE. Alas, our mainframe was shipped off in a truck four or five years ago and a couple years ago our managers discovered they could save a lot of money by gong with a 3rd party maintenance provider, so we are no longer with IBM. Nevertheless, this gives me some good leads. I'll contact my former CE and investigate some of the other options. Thanks so much!

I have a DS8100 that we are decommissioning and using as a trade-in. We need to make sure that all the data on this system is erased before we ship it off. Do any of you have any thoughts on how to accomplish this at little or no expense? Has anyone already dealt with this issue? Thanks!
