MBM Destroyit Degausser & HDP Hard Drive Punch

Description of the Destroyit Degausser/Hard Drive Punch

The Destroyit Degausser/Hard Drive Punch combined unit features one opening for degaussing hard drives, and another opening for punching a hole through the hard drive to finalize information erasure. Both units are single-feed operational. The "SPS" (Safety Protection System) package includes various features that protect both the user and the machine from a certain degree of harm. In addition to the user-friendly "Easy Switch" system with color-coded and backlit icon indicators reflecting the status of the machine, and the electronic, transparent safety shield in the HDP opening, this Degausser/HDP combo also features auto reverse in case of a jam, auto stop after punching, and auto power-off when the bin is either full or opened.

The Degausser unit beams the inserted hard drive with an all-encompassing 0.87-Tesla magnetic field, ensuring that all data stored in the hard drive are erased. This unit features a digital status indicator, field strength verification, extremely quiet operation due to no moving parts, and continuous operation, no cooling necessary. The hard drive is easily inserted into a red container, which is then inserted into the degausser for the magnetic field treatment. Once the degaussing is finished, the hard drive can be removed in one piece. This degausser unit is also available as a stand-alone unit.

The HDP (Hard Drive Punch) unit takes care of the physicality of the destruction process, punching a hole through the hard drive with a hardened, nickel-plated die of steel. This HDP is ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and CE certified, featuring an adjustable feed chute and a user-friendly lever for selecting the hard drive size (either 2-1/2" or 3-1/2"). The punching compartment is also removable via a smooth slider mechanism. LEDs illuminate the feed chute during the punching process, and the destroyed hard drive is deposited into a sturdy plastic bin. The quiet and powerful single-phase motor is rated for continuous motion, and drives a sturdy "twin drive system" with dust-proof gear box housing.
