  1. DBAN disk wipe on Bitlocker?


    My mother has an old laptop which is very slow running Win10 with Bitlocker encryption. I set it up for her in the past. She wants to get rid of it.

    If the drive is encrypted, do I still need to wipe the data using DBAN?

    The hard drive is an IDE drive, not SSD.

    :)
