*Please note* that `shred' relies on a very important assumption:
that the filesystem overwrites data in place. This is the traditional
way to do things, but many modern filesystem designs do not satisfy this
assumption. Exceptions include:
* Log-structured or journaled filesystems, such as those supplied
with AIX and Solaris, and JFS, ReiserFS, XFS, Ext3, etc.
* Filesystems that write redundant data and carry on even if some
writes fail, such as RAID-based filesystems.
* Filesystems that make snapshots, such as Network Appliance's NFS
server.
* Filesystems that cache in temporary locations, such as NFS version
3 clients.
