Why Choose Professional Hong Kong Hard Drive Degaussing Service?

When Hong Kong enterprises need to securely dispose of old hard drives, Hong Kong hard drive degaussing service is the most reliable data destruction solution. Hong Kong Recycling Trading Company Limited (HKRT) holds triple ISO certifications (9001, 27001, and 14001), providing military-grade hard drive degaussing services to ensure sensitive data is permanently unrecoverable.

What is Hard Drive Degaussing?

Hard drive degaussing uses powerful magnetic fields exceeding 20,000 Gauss to completely erase data from magnetic storage devices. This process realigns magnetic particles within the hard drive, making data 99.99% unrecoverable—far more secure than software deletion or formatting.

Degaussing vs Other Methods

• vs Software Deletion: Physical-level data destruction, more thorough
