You can also schedule it to wipe free space on your drives, to make sure any deleted files stay deleted.
A plug for my eDR Solutions:
With over 200M hard drives being retired this year, it is our belief that certain organization whose information is extremely valuable should consider on site destruction hard drive destruction. Drives that are piled on work benches or stored waiting for final disposition are a risk. There are too many stories of companies data being lost in transit. Our lead product, the HDC, enables companies to control the destruction process at their facility and avoid potential legal and PR troubles.
Keep up the good work. ID theft is terrible!
