how to erase data on a harddrive so it cannot be recovered

Hi, I have several used hard drives that I am selling. I would like to "clean" the drive so the customer can not get the data through traditional data recovery methods / programs. Does anyone have any applications that they would suggest?

There still exists "hammer" method of erasing hard disks, but then I doubt you will be getting some buyers for them. ;)  As Perarduaadastra said...
