well, I'll zero out the drive. I was doing so earlier but unwittingly pulled the drive out when it was half-way done. it's funny, dd started at 15mb/s transfer rate and dropped to 5ish but this time it started a 5ish.

My other drive is constantly throwing permission denied at me. Even with sudo. SO ti try to chmod it but I'm doing something wrong! My lack of experience shows:(
michael@desktop1:/media/michael$ sudo chmod -r {drive} 777
[sudo] password for michael:          
chmod: cannot access '777': No such file or directory
michael@desktop1:/media/michael$ sudo chmod -r 777 {drive}/
chmod: cannot access '777': No such file or directory
michael@desktop1:/media/michael$
What am I doing wrong?
