Frequently Asked Questions
What is an NSA-listed hard drive destroyer?
An NSA-listed hard drive destroyer is a certified device that physically destroys storage media to meet National Security Agency standards for secure data destruction. The Garner PD-5SSD uses mechanical destruction to render hard drives and SSDs completely unrecoverable, ensuring sensitive data cannot be recovered through any forensic means.
Does the PD-5SSD destroy both hard drives and SSDs?
Yes. The complete package includes the PD-5 for traditional hard drive destruction and the SSD-1 solid-state destroyer for modern SSDs, making it a versatile solution for mixed storage environments.
Is the Garner PD-5SSD compliant with government data destruction standards?
Absolutely. The PD-5SSD meets NSA-listed requirements and complies with NIST SP 800-88 guidelines, making it suitable for government agencies, defense contractors, and organizations handling classified information.
What does the SSD-MT5 mounting tray do?
The SSD-MT5 mounting tray securely positions solid-state drives during the destruction process, ensuring consistent and complete physical destruction of all internal components.
