Pi DBAN/ShredOS disk wipe station? (sh.itjust.works)

I have a pile of hard drives sitting around that need to be securely wiped. Does anyone know of something similar to DBAN or ShredOS for ARM that I can use to turn a Pi into a disk wipe station? It doesn't need to be a dedicated OS, just a package that I can run on top of armbian or whatever.

It's funny, I was about to post a reply to help - but I looked up my answer (just to me sure), and it turns out I was wrong!

So I'm learning something here, too. Bookmarked so I can see what Spikes posts later

Turns out my comments were not brief, but once you get the hang of it you can write down the commands you are using and repeat them.

I scripted the whole thing for work, so it is getting more and more rusty.
