    Hard Drive Shredder
    « on: November 01, 2005, 03:51:27 PM »
    Based on the results Google returned, this may be a long shot. Does anyone know of a commercially available hard drive shredder/grinder? I need a device that will physically destroy hard drives by the dozens, and I've heard that these machines exist.

      Wish it were that easy, GX.  ;D

      We're required by law to physically destroy them...

        Heat is the surest way of destroying the drives and the data. At 800-1000C everything melts together, rendering absolutely unusable and unrecoverable.

          Thanks for the input, fellas. Problem solved.

          I have an ex-wife who has agreed to come in twice a week and sit on them.
