Erasing Hard Drives Shouldn't be Difficult.
Neither Should Pricing, Licensing, and Use.

Why Drive Erase?

Selling or donating a computer? Recycling old Equipment?

The data on old drives can pose as a huge security risk for anyone. Pictures and videos. Bank records. Tax documents. Medical records. All of these are at risk of being recovered from an improperly erased drive by cybercriminals looking to benefit from you or your customer's private information.

You may be saying to yourself, but I deleted these files using Window's Recycle Bin and it's been emptied! Maybe you even formatted the drive. It's not enough. By not erasing these drives with certified and professional tools, it leaves them vulnerable to expert data recovery cybercriminals.

Don't become another victim of cyber-crime by your personal and sensitive information falling into the wrong hands. Before selling, donating, or recycling any drive, return it to the state when it left the factory — empty. Whether you're an individual or small business, gain peace of mind by securely and permanently erasing all of the data from your drives with Drive Erase, an easy to use and certified drive erasure tool.
