Zeroing Out HDD's

.NET doesn't provide this functionality as it does not interact with low level code directly, you would have to use something like Assembly or C/C++ for this. Perhaps there exists some SDK some where that you can use within VB.NET but other than that there isnt much of a chance.
Generally there is an option for HDD's to zero them out using their own diagnostic tools.
