The challengers specifically state: "You may not ... disassemble the drive." That requirement makes this challenge moot. The reading of the "residual polarisation" of the platters after a single zeroing out requires the disks to be disassembled and the platters taken out for inspection with more sensitive heads than are build into the drive.
Of course you cannot restore the data with the electronics build into the drive :P .
