SD-Mobile Hard Drive & Tape Degausser, permanently wipes data, renders HDD unusable
The SD-Mobile Series is a Magnetic Media Degausser using Permanent Rare Earth "Fixed Magnet" Technology. This device is capable of completely erasing all data on magnetic media devices such as PMR and LMR Hard Disk Drives, Hard Drives (3.5", 2.5", 1.8", 1.0"), Tape (DAT, 8mm, Half-inch/3480, LTO-1 to LTO-9, QIC, DLT, Travan, AIT) and Floppy Disks.
It's Rare Earth Magnet Technology generates NO Heat, No Sound, No EMF (Electromagnetic Fields) and can be used continuously. The Hand Crank design requires no electrical power to operate the unit and is perfect for mobile applications.
Mobile and Deployable: No External Power Required. This degausser uses permanent magnets and is thus a standalone unit that does not require electrical power. It is fully deployable for on-site and emergency degaussing.
Degaussing can be complete within 1 seconds with an actual degauss cycle time of in as little as 6 second utilizing its 12,000 Gauss for Standard Model and 14,000 Gauss for PRO model with permanent rear earth fixed magnet. Go green with the powerful, affordable and easy to use SD-Mobile to safely and permanently erase your most important asset - your data.
