Re: Wow
There are tools that can get deep into a hard drive. It's likely you could do a hard drive firmware or boot track infection on a whole swath of Apples fitted with the same drive. It's right that RAID drives have something written to them which survives formatting. X-Box drives are also modified in some way as are drives from TV recorders.
I'm not saying the virus did these things but with root access a person could do this therefore a virus could.
