Copiers WIth HDD (2010 Video)

Copiers Data Security Hard Drive

[Brandon Nielsen]

The 2010 video is going around again on Facebook about the CBS News Story warning that copiers with HDD may contain saved images.

In the video, they purchase 4 industrial copiers for $ 300 each.

Does anyone know where this warehouse is ? This is not a joke. I could use a $ 300 commercial copier.

While it's not a joke, wiping out a HDD is trivial but don't expect it to work again after you bulk erase it with an electromagnet.

Look up Degaussers and you'll find the gear to wipe that HDD.

As far as the warehouse goes, there's a lot of office surplus resellers like WeirdStuff here in the SF Bay Area that have some things you can only imagine often at rock bottom prices.

Another good place to find office gear cheap is look for auctions of bankrupt places and going out of business sales are a great place to find stuff for pennies on the dollar.

Last but not least, eBay and Craigslist have tons of stuff at all sorts of price points.

Shouldn't be hard to find those prices with a little research.
