    I like to imagine this is an evil genius, has taken everyones hard drives around the world containing important data family photos etc and is just holding them ransom. He's just chucked a few in the shredder to show he's serious. Look how casually he just throws them away, he's a monster.

    I could just imagine the safety precautions for servicing one of these things...
    -Shut off all power to the machine and lock the disconnects.
    -On a hydraulically operated machines, close and lock all service valves.
    -Obtain a confined space permit if necessary to enter the hopper.
    -If the shredder is operated by an internal combustion engine, disconnect the drive coupling and lock the transmission shaft.

    Another warm and fuzzy thing is taking burned out hard drives to the range and picking at them with a .308 or Dragunov. I did that with some computer-nerd friends at Drexel Univ once. What fun!

  • @CaptExpendable
    @CaptExpendable 17 років тому +1

    Consider those drives RMA'd. They do it for Data security. As long as the drive exists data can be recovered. They are simply making the drive not exist anymore. IN A TOTALLY AWESOME WAY! At a shop I worked at we used a panel hammer to 'RMA' drives.

  • @groggyorangutan
    @groggyorangutan 17 років тому +1

    A low-level format would do the trick, in a low-level format, you would set every sector on the disc to a certain value, say 0F. That way there is no data to recover.
    With a normal format that anyone can do easily, all that really happens is the index at the front of the drive is set to be empty so that when the operating system checks for any data present it "sees" nothing on the disc, that is how data recovery works, scan the disc and see what data is there but not referenced in the index.

    @pmgodfrey most hard drives are not destroyed to recycle but rather for data security

  • @groggyorangutan
    @groggyorangutan 17 років тому +2

    Nice explanation of how they do that. If every byte of the disc is the same value how can data recovery occur?

    we have a smaller shredder in the garage at work aswell. its fun to play with it and shred various stuff with it. from cans to boxes etc.

    Data from 'Empty Recycle Bin' can be recovered. Shredding hard drives like this is a very quick way to ensure any confidential data which may be still on them is destroyed. It's just like shredding confidential paper documents.
    Hard drives can also be bulk degaussed as well, for destroying confidential data.

    No, even burned hard drives from the space shuttle challenger had its data retrieved. You can actually retrive data from a HDD cut in half if you really wanted to (maybe not all of it but most). The only way to safely remove all data is to either use high powered magnets on it or shred it.

    @tunfischDCS In Edmonton Alberta, the toxic metals and plastics are sent to an air cyclonic separator not much different then a shop vac on steroids. The Metals are shipped off to a specialist smelter that recovers the trace metals after melting. This is becoming a growth industry as much of this material is very rare and expensive to mine.

  • @pmgodfrey
    @pmgodfrey 14 років тому +1

    I'm curious... Why does it seem that every video showing a shredder from SSI - none of the components have been separated from one another.
    As an owner of a computer demanfacture, we take the entire thing apart - separating the plastic from the chassis and boards - wires etc.
    All you're doing is making smaller waste - not separating components.

      +David Boshears (RareCoinsGuy) If you do it atleast 3-7 times and also use strict failure checking, then you are good2go. But one pass wont completely erase data. You will make it impossible to recover data using the disk's own magnetic heads because they aren't sensitive enough. But: Theres magnetic remanence left that can be recovered using specialized tools in clean rooms, eg "heads" that are tens of times more sensitive than the harddrive's own heads, and also electromagnetic microscopes and such.
