-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Installing Linux over Windows destroys the partition table and any overwritten data on the disk. It does not, however, make all date unrecoverable. With the right tools and enough money, anyone can recover data on a disk even if it has been overwritten more than once. This is why wiping tools rewrite the data on the disk 3 or more times to ensure that even the most aggressive recovery techniques will fail.
