Hard drive shredding, recorded serial by serial
Boxes of old drives tend to collect in server rooms and closets because nobody wants to sign off on them. We take loose drives in any quantity, record each serial number, shred them and send you the list.
What we shred
- 3.5" and 2.5" hard disk drives
- SATA, M.2 and U.2 solid-state drives
- Backup tapes and removable media
- Phones and tablets that cannot be verified as wiped
How pricing works
Loose drive shredding is priced per drive, with the rate depending on quantity and media type. When drives come in with equipment we are reselling, the resale value usually covers it. Your quote lists the per-drive charge before anything is collected.
Sealed until processed
Drives travel in sealed, numbered containers from your site to our facility. The seal number is recorded on the pickup manifest and checked when the container is opened for processing.
Questions
Do you need the drives removed from the computers first?
No. We can extract them. Tell us in the request and we will record both the drive and host serial numbers.
Is there a minimum number of drives?
No minimum. A single box of drives is fine.
