Even if the hard drive breaks down the storage platters will still contain information which could be read once repaired.

In keeping with our policy of recognising user requirements we have introduced the V91 PC hard drive eraser. The V91 is capable of removing data from PC hard drives in less than 20 seconds. Although in most cases this will render the hard drive inoperative, the cost of a replacement hard drive cannot be compared to the cost to a company if sensitive information can be read by a third party.

Even if only used infrequently the V91 provides a cost security solution to the protection of company, client and sensitive computer data.

DLT
To re-use your previously formatted DLTtape IV™ tapes in the new DLT1 tape drive, Data Link has introduced the V91 DLT Bulk Eraser.

Anyone upgrading their existing DLT drive with the new DLT1 drive should understand that their existing inventory of recorded DLTtape IV™ media may not be usable in the DLT1 without thoroughly degaussing them before hand. Media recorded in either the DLT7000 or DLT8000 format will be automatically rejected to protect the data on the tape.

The problem is easily solved by erasing all existing DLT tapes on Data Link V91 bulk eraser. The V91 will erase all old data and formats in 10 seconds leaving the tapes completely clear and ready to use in DLT1 drives.
