Eraser vs Sdelete

I recently discovered a MS sysinternals called Sdelete. I am wondering how it compares to Eraser in terms of effectiveness and safety. I believe it uses the DOD standards and will erase files, folders, and free space. There is also a GUI available to use with it.

Has anyone had any experience with this?

Thanks for the help.
 
Sdelete has not been updated in almost 2 and a half years so if there are any bugs they have gone unfixed. Ultimately both Sdelete and eraser will do the same thing. Eraser however provides a much larger choice in wipe patterns and is more feature rich. Eraser also does not come with a limiting EULA :)
