TThe model VS7000, Manual Hard Drive Destroyer, is designed for the destruction of all standard hard drives. It was specifically designed for emergency situations when electricity may not be available and quick destruction is a must. This small, heavy-duty hard drive destroyer is maintenance free and completely self-contained. There are no fluids or external components to contend with and no adjustments or calibration required. In an emergency situation a hard drive needs to be destroyed so that a person or persons can not spin the drive. This must be done quickly and reliably. The VS7000 takes less than 15 seconds to destroy each hard drive. All one needs to do is to insert the proper drive height adaptor into the slot and crank the handle 8 rotations. The internal workings of the unit press down on the drive, bending it approximately 90 degrees. To keep the speed at an optimum, the VS7000 does not require the handle to be cranked backwards to reset the "bender" requiring the operator to turn the handle in only one direction. The bend will render the hard drive useless by bending the platter, damaging the heads, motor and circuit board. A standard ratcheting feature is also included to make it even easier to destroy unusually hard to break drives or if a high quantity of drives need to be processed. In commercial applications, the VS7000 is an inexpensive alternative to expensive power destroyers, shredders. The VS7000 offers visible proof that the hard drive is, destroyed. Because the VS7000 requires a minimal amount of manual power, it is extremely operator friendly. "Hard drive destruction crucial" "experts now recommend physically destroying the drive platters as the only way to ensure that data cannot be accessed."

Degausser.co.uk in association with Eyecote offer a comprehensive range that encompasses all erasure requirements from a hand held degausser through to continuous duty industrial degaussers. Magnetic Media Technology continues to advance and data capacities increase bringing with it greater security risks when using and disposing of media.
Erasing all media before re-use will orientate the particles completely thus leaving the media clean of previous data and provides protection against computer Virus contamination.
