Data Erasure FAQs

What is the best way to safely dispose of hard drives and SSDs?

Best practices involve using data erasure software to securely overwrite data on hard drives and SSDs, including the hidden areas and remapped sectors. Erasure is done per government standards such as NIST, DOD, and many more. Erasure software is used before the drives are transported to equipment for physical destruction to eliminate the possibility of data being intercepted during transport.Physical destruction of hard disk drives can be done with a degausser that uses a powerful magnetic field, which erases not only the data but removes the servo tracks, making the media unusable. The most permanent and final destruction solution involves the use of granulators, also known as shredders. These machines rip, tear, or smash a hard drive or SSD into pieces so small that data cannot be recovered from the media or memory chips.

Counter to what you usually do. What is the best way in your opinion to make sure the data isn’t recoverable?

Make sure all the NAND chips are broken for destruction or use an erasure software that has been validated by Ontrack.

Does data erasure remove files and clean the drive?

Data erasure is the removal of data from a storage device such that it cannot be recovered. Data erasure software repeatedly writes a pattern of 1's and 0's over all of the data locations on a hard drive or SSD so that the original data is no longer accessible. The software also removes all data from temporary locations. File erasure software allows the user to target all instances of specific files to be erased, instead of wiping all data from the entire storage media.

How do I perform a complete data erasure?

How long does data erasure take?

Data erasure can occur in minutes when an encryption key is digitally shredded. Otherwise, erasure can take minutes to hours, depending on the capacity and performance level of the storage media.
