My laptops HD has taken the knock it is under warranty so they will replace it
free. The problem is I have some business stuff on there that is not for
outside ears clients bank details etc. How do I clean the disk completetly?

Are you just sending in the drive or the whole laptop? If it's just the
drive, I'd find a very powerful magnet and put it on the drive (or the drive
on the magnet). IIRC this will do the trick.
