Clean Hard Drive

Read Original

The article details a case where a user tried to clean a Fujitsu hard drive of sensitive data by submerging it in hot soapy water. It explains why this method is ineffective for data destruction, as the data likely remains recoverable. The post walks through opening the drive to show water contamination and concludes that physical destruction (e.g., shredding) is the proper disposal method for sensitive media.
