The Necessity of a Hard Drive Crusher

If you own a company that deals with sensitive information, it is crucial to properly destroy any storage device that becomes damaged or outdated. Whether it is client data or even more sensitive information related to security clearance, just tossing your storage media into the garbage is not enough. While most businesses and government agencies remember to destroy smaller media like DVDs, USBs, and SSDs, larger storage devices like hard drives are often overlooked.

A computer and/or its hard drive simply thrown in the garbage is vulnerable. A resourceful data thief can reconstruct information even from damaged devices. It is important to completely destroy your hard drives. Individuals specializing in data reconstruction can read and subsequently steal the information contained on them, if not obliterated on a level with NSA specifications.

MediaVise HDD Destroyer (MV-HDD)

At Phiston Technologies, we have the solution to this dilemma. The Phiston MediaVise HDD Destroyer (MV-HDD) is a commercial-capacity computer hard disk drive destroyer. The plates on this crusher can deliver over 40,000 pounds of crushing force. That is 20 tons! Within 60 seconds, the platters, red heads, and the drive itself not only crushes but mangles and renders unreadable.

This machine is fully automatic, making user safety a non-issue. All remaining debris accumulates in a collection bin, where it can be safely disposed of when it is convenient. While it has a commercial capacity, it still is portable if the circumstances require mobility. It even has RFI and EMI suppression technology. So it will not affect any electronic equipment in its vicinity when it is in use. If you need to destroy smaller media, you can use the MV-HDD on SSDs, USB/flash drives, PDAs, cell/smartphones, and even circuit boards as well.

This crusher not only meets but exceeds, NSA specifications for data destruction. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) for Secure Destruction of HDDs approves it.

So, contact us today. Let us make sure to utterly and completely destroy your sensitive information. If it doesn’t exist, it cannot fall into the wrong hands!
