NOTE: To comply with recognized standards, including NSA/DoD requirements, a degausser must be used prior to destroying hard drives. In a typical national security operation, a destroyer is used in conjunction with a NSA-approved degausser. Using a degausser is the only way to guarantee all data on hard drives and other magnetic media is permanently unrecoverable.
