Hard Drive Degaussing is recommended by National Institute of Standards & Technology and the Department of Defense. The HDD-100 tape eraser is a fully automatic degausser for Hard Drives and Backup tapes. It uses pulse discharge technology and is fully processor controlled which enables the HDD-100 tape degausser to offer complete and secure erasing for magnetic media. Media that can be degaussed includes Hard Drives that use both perpendicular and vertical recording techniques and most common backup tapes including DLT, LTO, 8mm, DDS and more. The HDD-100 hard drive degausser generates a powerful magnetic field and in less than eight seconds completely erases the data from Hard Drives and Backup tapes. A simple one pass operation makes it ideal in businesses where security is of the utmost importance. The HD-100 hard drive eraser is a fully automatic table top mounted unit and when powered up the operator simply slides the hard drive into the aperture on the left hand side of the unit. The unit senses the presence of the media and the degauss cycle starts automatically. No operator action is required. When the degauss cycle is complete, the hard drive is released and exits from the degausser on the right hand side. Throughout the entire degauss cycle the onboard processor monitors the procedure and progress messages are displayed on the LCD panel. If the degauss cycle is interrupted for any reason such as power loss or any fault condition, the media is retained in the HDD-100 and the operator is immediately alerted to the interruption in the erasure cycle on the LCD panel.

Product FAQs
Questions About HDD-100 Hard Drive and Tape Degausser
Product-specific answers based on this shredder’s description, specifications, and intended use case.
What magnetic media can the HDD-100 securely erase?
The HDD-100 is a hard drive degausser. The HDD-100 is intended for CD/DVDs, hard drives, magnetic media, and tapes. It sanitizes magnetic media by degaussing rather than cutting it into particles.
Can the HDD-100 degausser erase SSDs or other solid-state media?
No. The HDD-100 is for magnetic storage; SSDs, flash drives, memory cards, and other non-magnetic solid-state media are not erased by degaussing and require an appropriate physical-destruction method.
How fast is the HDD-100 for hard drive or tape degaussing?
The HDD-100 should be sized around the number and type of magnetic media processed in each session.
What power, workflow, or installation requirements does the HDD-100 have?
Before each cycle, confirm the media is magnetic, fits the chamber or loading method, and follows the organization’s chain-of-custody procedure. Record the completed erasure step if the workflow requires audit evidence.
Who should choose the HDD-100 for secure data degaussing?
The HDD-100 is designed for organizations that repeatedly sanitize magnetic media in-house and want a controlled, repeatable process.
