Digitally Decommission Disk Drives
DigitalShredder erases sensitive data from hard drives while retaining operating data for download and administrative reporting. Load up to 3 hard drives into personality blocks which then load into tamper-proof drive bays. Bays become manually locked and password protected. Decommissioning is executed using single-pass Secure Erase that erases drives Beyond Forensic Recovery (BFR) and reformats or reimages drives for immediate reuse. LED indicators reflect status of operation. Creates certifiable audit trail—including operator’s name, date, and time of decommission, manufacturer’s model and serial number, elapsed time, and erasure process—that can be printed, stored, or exported to thumb drive. Fully integrated unit includes laminated-label printer with 7-in. touch-screen interface; sheet metal construction with aluminum frame and machine-aluminum drive connectors; and 300-w. power supply. Optional hard and soft-shell cases are available. DestructData, Inc., Melrose, MA
