The Garner PD-5 Hard Drive Destroyer is incredibly easy to use, simply open the door, insert a hard drive close the door and push the button. The PD-5’s high strength stainless steel wedge bends, breaks, mangles and crushes the media meeting NSA/CSS SDDM 9-12 requirements as well as DoD Emergency Destruction Guidelines. The PD-5 features an Automated Crush Depth Function controlled by internal logic that both senses the height of the hard drive media in the chamber and calibrates the most effective crush depth without sensors in the crush bay. The Door Open Safety Sensor stops the PD-5 immediately if the door is opened during the destruction cycle.

Built to the highest standards in the industry, the PD-5’s stainless steel crushing wedge resists chips and dents. The PD-5 has been real world tested to meet the demands of data centers as well as recyclers. The PD-5 does not use hydraulics to crush so there is no need for an extra “Emergency Stop” switch or oil spill containment mat. The PD-5 also has maintenance reminders utilizing the 32 character LCD display.

Rather than taking media to the destroyer, bring the light weight PD-5 right to the media. The PD-5 has a footprint no larger than most desktop computers and ships safely in the optional MIL-SPEC shipping case.

The PD-5 also features a session counter, an overall cycle counter, a door open safety sensor, a shatter-proof transparent door, no hydraulics and no adapters are required. It can operate from 32 degrees F (0 degrees C) to 122 degrees F (50 degrees C) and Relative Humidity: 5% to 45%.
