Hard Drive Crusher: The MediaVise® Rackmount HDD Destroyer (MVR-HDD) is the first and only commercially available HDD destroyer that can be installed in a server rack.

The MVR-HDD was designed for data center deployments utilizing between nine and twelve standard rack units. The MVR-HDD only takes up nine rack units. All mounting and hardware installation is included.

The MediaVise® Rackmount HDD Destroyer has been successfully evaluated by the National Security Agency (NSA/CSS approved) for the secure destruction of HDDs

The rackmount destroyer has a lifecycle of 50,000 usages without the need to replace or sharpen the blades and uses Phiston’s proprietary technology hydraulic crushing system. The destroyer doesn’t simply fold a hard drive or punch a few holes in it; the device crushes and demolishes every square inch of the HDD, rendering all data storage surfaces completely sanitized.

The MVR-HDD can also safely destroy cell phones, circuit boards, memory boards, and CD/DVD/Blue Ray.

With the convenience and peace of mind of having full chain of custody, the MVR-HDD is your safe, easy-to-use, and comprehensive hard drive destruction solution!

Media destruction can be performed in-house, so media never leaves your custody intact or entrusted to a contractor.
Destroyed media falls directly into a locked, secure debris collection drawer that can accommodate up to 25 destroyed HDDs and other media. The operator never has to touch the debris to remove it from the crushing chamber.
Locking Drawer for securely storing destroyed media can only be opened by a secure passcode.
Fully automated, hands-off operation for user safety.
Fully sanitizes drives in less than 30 seconds
No special adapters are needed for power or for crushing various media.
Crushing plates never need to be sharpened or replaced.
Rack-mountable in Standard Racks and safe for Data Centers. Uses nine rack units.
Adaptable to mobile racks (typically 9-12 mobile rack units). Mobile racks are the ideal vehicle for a complete mobile erasure/overwrite and destruction platform for data centers. Phiston builds mobile racks with up to 18 units.
