Wiping Data creates huge temp files

Hi,

I'm using system tools to wipe approx 15Gb of clear space on a 30Gb drive. Towards the end of the process I got a low disk space warning (there was only 200Mb left on disk), the rest was taken up with temp files. Is this normal?

Yes, it is normal, we show a warning about low disk space notification just before wiping.

The files will be deleted when wiping is finished.
