If not, I can point you in the right direction. Do it right guys or eventually there WILL be a certification you will have to have and it WON'T be cheap....you also need data insurance in case someone wants a copy of your policy....THAT makes you legit...real software and insurance.

Yes. this might be nice for me. 80% of the HD I get, the customers don't care either way. Its the other 20% that are concerned. I've had people drill them out with a drill press before selling to me. I tell them that they don't need to worry, but trust can be hard to earn with a first impression sometimes. I will look into it.
I definitely agree, do it right.
