ERASE THE DRIVE
Onsite Hard Drive Erasure + Destruction
Hard Drive Erasure
One loose hard drive, or a full storage array with hundreds of hard drives, we erase and sanitize drives on-site before they leave your care, custody, and control.
Our trained technicians arrive at your location and will erase your loose drives, or direct connect to a storage array to perform the required erasure process.
We erase the drives electronically so we are able to:
Collect the Serial Number of each drive
Deliver a Certificate of erasure before we leave your facility
Leave the drives for you to resell, or return to your leasing company
The process is fully mobile and can take place anywhere in the world.

Hard Drive and Storage Media Destruction
Hard Drive, Tape, and Storage Media Destruction is a Secure, Efficient, and Economical data security process. Electronic Media Destruction services allow you to remain in compliance with National Data Security regulations such as:
THE HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT (HIPAA)
THE GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY ACT (GLBA)
THE FAIR AND ACCURATE CREDIT TRANSACTIONS ACT (FACTA).
SARBANES-OXLEY (SOX)
All hard drives and storage media are physically destroyed. A detailed report is generated for each project that includes asset type, asset serial number, and asset tag (if applicable). Physical destruction is accomplished by crushing or shredding a hard drive. We offer three physical destruction services:
01 / Hard Drive Crushing: Lowest Cost Solution
Step one: Hard Drives are first degaussed (data is permanently erased and forensically unrecoverable. The degausser erases magnetic media (Longitudinal and Perpendicular) including all standard hard drives (laptop, desktop & network) & storage tapes (DLT, LTO, DDS/DAT, etc.). SSD Drives are not degaussed, only destroyed.
Step Two: each hard drive is then crushed/destroyed. Up to 150 Drives Per Hour. SSD Drives are not degaussed, only destroyed.
02 / Standard 20mm – 30 mm Shred
Depending on the size of the project, either a mobile shredder (stand-alone) or a mobile shredder transported by truck will be required. Ideal for large projects over 2,000 drives.
03 / 2mm shred
Requires specialized equipment that shreds the storage media into minute particles. Because of the size, this is the slowest process that meets the US National Security Agency standard for destruction of SSD-based storage media – – requires mobilization of specialized destruction device transported by truck.
Global Reach: Whether you have a single hard drive in Topeka, Kansas, or 1,000 drives in Kuala Lumpur, we can assist with your hard drive security needs.
Service is performed by trained technicians who have undergone all necessary background checks
Serial Numbers can be scanned for additional details
All Drive / Tape Shred is removed and disposed of in an environmentally sound manner
A Certificate of Destruction is provided for each project
