Formax Hard Drive Shredder with Recording System FD 87HDS-R provides the best level of security by physically destroying discarded hard drives. For optimal security and accountability, the FD 87HDS-R features a Recording System with internal and external cameras to monitor and document their destruction. The system includes a 64GB SD card to store barcode images and recorded videos, which can be removed and downloaded as needed. One hour of recording time uses +/- 1GB of storage space on the SD card.
Users simply load a hard drive into one of two cutting chambers and close the safety shield. With the push of a button, the rugged solid steel blades grind the hard drive into randomly sized pieces 1.6” wide and smaller for 3.5” HDD hard drives and .19” wide and smaller for 2.5” HDD & SSD drives. The shredded pieces fall into a convenient molded plastic waste bin for proper disposal or recycling.
The Formax Hard Drive Shredder with Recording System FD 87HDS-R cutting blades are made of hardened steel for strength and durability. Each shredding chamber features a metal safety shield, and its own resettable LED counter to keep an accurate tally of shredded drives. Its control panel displays operational status and offers jam protection with Auto Reverse and Auto Stop. In addition, sensors stop the motor automatically if any of the doors are open or the waste bin is full. The powerful metal-geared motor is housed in an all-metal cabinet with casters for mobility and is designed for low operational noise.
