I need to zero fill and then restore about 40 computers. My original plan was to use the free Killdisk software, restore and fully update one drive, and then Killdisk and image the rest.

My question is, if I zero fill and restore one drive do I really need to zero fill the rest or will the image copy over the sectors with zeros also?

It is semi-important data, so I need to make sure there is atleast one zero pass.

Thanks!
