- HARD DRIVE AND
DLT DEGAUSSER
Hard Drives
The vulnerability of information stored on PC hard drives is
a recognised security risk. Unlike other PC data storage media
the hard drive always stays with the PC. Every time a PC leaves
a companys control all the data and company information
will go with it.
Even if the hard drive breaks down the storage platters will still
contain information which could be read once repaired.
In keeping with our policy of recognising user requirements we
have introduced the V91 PC hard drive eraser. The V91 is capable
of removing data from PC hard drives in less than 20 seconds. Although
in most cases this will render the hard drive inoperative, the cost
of a replacement hard drive cannot be compared to the cost to a
company if sensitive information can be read by a third party.
Even if only used infrequently the V91 provides a cost security
solution to the protection of company, client and sensitive computer
data.
DLT
To re-use your previously formatted DLTtape IV tapes in the
new DLT1 tape drive, the V91 DLT Bulk Eraser has been introduced.
Anyone upgrading their existing DLT drive with the new DLT1 drive
should understand that their existing inventory of recorded DLTtape
IV media may not be usable in the DLT1 without thoroughly
degaussing them before hand. Media recorded in either the DLT7000
or DLT8000 format will be automatically rejected to protect the
data on the tape.
The problem is easily solved by erasing all existing DLT tapes
on V91 bulk eraser. The V91 will erase all old data and formats
in 10 seconds leaving the tapes completely clear and ready to use
in DLT1 drives.
