Here at Computer Crusher, data security is our number one driving force. Our premier service of on site data destruction is and has been under constant development since the inception of the company. We utilize a method of physical destruction over software based institutions for numerous reasons.
- Speed
- Reliability of destruction
- Energy conservation
- Assured destruction
Once we have the hard drive seperated from the computer, we are able to physically destroy the hard drive. We have developed a proprietary press/head combination in which we are able to crush, puncture, and warp the platters. We are able to physically destroy about one hard drive every 20-30 seconds with our machine. The machine is completely man powered and does not use any electricity.
The photo to the left demonstrates what the hard drive looks like once it has been crushed in our machine. The crusher head punches four holes through the platters. The platters warp and crack around these four punched holes. The platters are also bent, warped, and cracked around the hard drive spindle. Finally the crusher head destroys the circuit board found on the back side of the hard drive as the four spikes pierce all the way through the hard drive. This method of destruction allows for total physical destruction without the use of expensive and energy sucking degaussing machines.
When you elect to have your data destroyed with us using our proprietary method, you can be sure it will be destroyed quickly, efficiently, and using zero emissions during the destruction process. If you would like more information about hard drive destruction, or would like to schedule an appointment for destruction please contact us at
