Thats extremely far fetched. What are the chances?

A laptop with wifi turned off (dont even need to remove the actual card for fuck sakes) will be safe unless you are someone like fucking Asagne or something.

100% is extreme, yes.

Whats the best DBAN method to use? PRNG stream?

For a magnetical HDD it does not matter nowadays. The old 7 times "rule" was made for disks with a wider track. Thus you can overwrite the disk with any data, 0's, 1's, random bits, your favorite dog pictures.

Edit: you could test how good DBAN works with DEFT [1]
