HDD to scrap in 40 seconds
white finger [to me] from having to try and FIGHT said HDD through the magnetic field was damn nigh instant
killed 100+ HDD's in about 8 hours
you have to switch it off and let it cool [5 mins on then 5 off :eek:]
killed 000's of tapes and discs too
was asked to 'nuke' CD's
had to explain CD composition
was given thick gloves and a box :eek:
CD killing was a snap :D
I had a job that required us to run BC Wipe on the system's free space every Friday night to clear the slack/free space. However, I still use BCWipePD on all my old HDD that I give away.
