If, for any reason, a drive reports that it failed to wipe successfully, it will also be physically destroyed. The process typically requires three secure overwriting passes and verification at the end of the final pass.Įrasing a hard drive using the DoD 5220.22-M data sanitization method will prevent all software-based file recovery methods from recovering data from the drive, as well as hardware-based recovery methods
This method of erasure overwrites hard drives with patterns of ones and zeros.
Where required, we utilise the DoD 5220.22-M “method” for data erasure from hard drives. What about data erasure and data destruction? We are always able and willing to adapt to whatever your organisations ITAD policies. We test random samples with data recovery tools to see if any meaningful data can be retrieved so far, we have never found remnant data on a drive we have wiped.Īlthough our chosen processes are completely effective, we also know that many organisations have extra requirements, such as the need for drives to be wiped by a certain method or to a certain standard. Data storage media can be very different, requiring customised data wiping
