Hold it....

If the USB/CFC data is written so that the data is not quite over-written, isn't it a way to circumvent that by using a shell script to cause an overwrite, Not quite unlike some HDD wiping software use a string of "0's" to overwrite data?

Or is that asking too much out of the hardware?

Just a thought...
