HD-2 Data Eliminator: High Power Hard Drive Degausser

The HD-2 Data Eliminator is the newest and most innovative product in the Athana line of degaussers. The HD-2 erases hard drives (laptop, desktop and network up to 1" high) and high coercivity tape media, including all formats of LTO (1,2,3,4), SuperDLT I & II, DLT, AIT, 8mm and more, all without any adapters. With a continuous duty rating (no cooling necessary) quiet operation and a 60 second cycle time, the HD-2 can fit right on a desktop.

HD-2 Operations:
The HD-2 is exceptionally user-friendly. Simply place your media into the drawer on the right side of the HD-2 and push the "Erase" button. Within 60 seconds your media is erased. Open the drawer and remove your erased media. It just doesn’t get any easier than that!

HD-2 Reliability and Security:
The HD-2 has been independently tested and certified to meet both ANSI and CE standards. Built-in safeguards check the stored power before each erase cycle ensuring complete erasure every time. Audible tones and lighted push buttons report the status of the HD-2 to the operator. This guarantees reliable deletion of all Data every time.

Degauss vs.Overwrite:
The HD-2 produces an erasing field many times stronger than the erasing fields produced by the read/write heads in hard drives and tape drives. Consequently media and hard drives erased by the HD-2 during the degaussing operation sre no longer recoverable by computer or laboratory attacks. Since the HD-2 does not rely on computer software and drive interfaces, the HD-2 will also completely and permanently erase failed and damaged hard drives regardless of the operating system or interface.

Government Mandates:
The HD-2 will assist you in meeting compliance standards for government mandates requiring complete elimination of sensitive information stored on magnetic media prior to re-use or disposal including:

  • PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry) Data Security Standard
  • NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Guidelines for Media Sanitization
  • NIST SP 800-36
  • NIST SP 800-88>
