Security Engineered Machinery Co., Inc. (SEM) introduces a line of HDD and solid state shredder models: model DC-S1-3 series.

DC-S1-3 HDD for rotational HDDs

This series of devices are designed for the destruction of enterprise rotational HDDs and solid state media, such as those found in data centers.

Designed at the company’s Westborough, MA HQs, the DC-S1-3 Series includes 3 models:

Model DC-S1-3 HDD/SSD Combo

• DC-S1-3 HDD for rotational HDDs,

• DC-S1-3 SSD for SSDs, and

• DC-S1-3 HDD/SSD Combo for HDDs and SSDs.

All are made in the USA and TAA compliant.

“The DC-S1-3 series is an exciting new addition to our already extensive line of data destruction devices that was designed as a result of feedback gathered over the years from our data center clients,” commented Nicholas Cakounes, CTO. “In addition to robust health and safety features, the DC-S1-3 incorporates very high torque and solid steel cutting heads to easily destroy the toughest, most dense HDDs and devices.“

The S1-3 series of devices are designed with a 3HP motor, high torque, and 3-phase power, ensuring the machines’ longevity and consistency. The S1-3 HDD and SSD both come with a single feed opening while the S1-3 HDD/SSD combo unit includes 2 separate feed openings and cutting chambers, one for rotational, platter-based HDDs and the other for solid state HDDs and devices.

“Our new DC-S1-3 Series fills a gap for our data center clients when it comes to end-of-life HDD destruction,” said Ben Figueroa, strategic account manager. “These devices not only offer consistent and efficient drive destruction, but also feature a compact footprint, which is so critical to our data center clients.“

In addition to rotational and solid state HDDs, the DC-S1-3 series is for the shredding of data tapes, cell phones, smartphones, optical media, memory sticks, thumb drives, PCBs, and other related electronic storage media.
