Very clever. For someone of the House of Atreides

It sounds like Hillary may not have completely escaped the email scandal unscathed.
From the Washington Post:
The company that managed Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private e-mail server said it has “no knowledge of the server being wiped,” the strongest indication to date that tens of thousands of e-mails that Clinton has said were deleted could be recovered.
Clinton and her advisers have said for months that she deleted her personal correspondence from her time as secretary of state, creating the impression that 31,000 e-mails were gone forever.
There is a distinction between e-mails being deleted and a server being wiped. If e-mails are deleted or moved from a server, they appear to no longer exist on the device. But experts say, depending on the condition of the server, underlying data can remain on the device and the e-mails can often be restored.
To make the information go away permanently, a server must be wiped — a process that includes overwriting the underlying data with gibberish, possibly several times.
That process, according to Platte River Networks, the Denver-based firm that has managed the system since 2013, apparently did not happen.
THAT is HUGE!! It has been reported that none other than Edward Snowden himself had shown Hillary’s staff how to wipe clean their electronic devices, but it sounds like it didn’t take!!

This has the smell of a baloney sandwich that's been sitting out in the sun for a couple days.
Not wiped, just gently gone over with a feather duster?
Baloney is nearly 100% preservatives. Probably has a longer shelf life than Methuselah.
You have to understand the data architecture of Microsoft Exchange Server in order to correctly understand what is happening. The emails are all stored in one giant file, which is typical of many Microsoft products. Deleted emails are marked as deleted in the ndex component. What happens next depends on how Exchange was set up and administered. The emails could possibly have been written over, or they might still exist.
You mean with a cloth?
I’ve assumed all along that they would not have been wiped, they would have been simply replaced.
If they were not replaced, then these are the most incompetent grifters ever to come down the pike.
Remember when the MSM told us that she was the smartest woman in the world ? She has sure proved the media morons wrong!
They aren’t as smart as they thought they were either.
Wait til the find a Pay for Play e-mail-—state Department favors for hiring Bill to give a 2 million dollar speach—or a “contribution” to the Clinton Fund. That would sink her fast.
Not to worry. The Just’Us department will ensure the server is wiped clean.
Can you imagine being asked to wipe Hillary’s server with your bare hand?
I would have to decline.
Wish the source was something other than some unknown blogger.
If needed, I'm sure the server guy would do what was needed to deal with serial numbers.
I headed up a project with Hewlett-Packard and the Department of Defense in the late eighties and early nineties to declassify disk drives.
The reason for this push was that replacement disk mechanisms were rebuilt, and government customers that had confidential or above data on the drives could not purchase exchange drives and were forced to buy new ones at a much higher price, since the old ones could not be returned to HP.
I can tell you, as the project leader, that declassifying a disk is not as simple as just writing over the track or sector on the platters.
What was required was writing specific patterns multiple times while progressively offsetting the heads from track center (plus and minus).
I’m not sure that this “offsetting” is even possible on drives today.
don’t have to wipe hard drives that have long ago been melted down to slag
You’re a snotty little rag. You didn’t even read passed the second or third line. He quotes the Washington Post. Or is it that your illiterate? Wish? Wish? You have some big dreams for yourself, don’t you??
Correction:You’re illiterate
Don't be confused. This is an empty headline. It promises nothing. It means nothing.
The “witch hunt” continues. LOL! Clinton is toast. She’s not as smart as she thinks she is. Rimshot Joe is still waiting on the sidelines to be sent in.
bring in the clowns, er... I mean clown.
Remember, too, that DoD minimums for disk “wiping” is 3 passes of written zeros on a disk. Reformatting a hard drive does NOT remove the data from it, it only removes the partition tables and starts over.
As someone else pointed out, they can remove the hard drive and destroy it, then put in a new one.
