"I contacted Environmental Computer Recycling regarding the destruction of some hard drives which needed to be disposed off correctly. Environmental Computer Recycling gave me a very good quote, and were very efficient in collecting the hard drives. After destruction was completed, I was issued with a certificate which recorded all the serial numbers of the hard drives that were destroyed so I could cross reference them to the list I had made before. They were very professional and the service was affordable. I would have no hesitation in using them again in the future."

40% OF HARD DRIVES BOUGHT ON EBAY HOLD PERSONAL, CORPORATE DATA 
 
A New York computer forensics firm found that 40% of the hard disk drives it recently purchased in bulk orders on eBay contained personal, private and sensitive information. 
 
Everything from corporate financial data to the Web-surfing history and downloads of a man with a foot fetish. 
 
Kessler International conducted the study over a six-month period, buying up disk drives ranging in size from 40GB to 300GB from the United States and Canada.  
 
The firm, which completed its research about two weeks ago, bought a total of 100 relatively modern drives, the vast majority of them Serial ATA. 
"With size of the sample, I guess we were surprised with the percentage of disks that we found data on," said Michael Kessler, CEO of Kessler International. "We expected most of the drives to be wiped -- to find one or two disks with data. But 40 drives out of 100 is a lot.* 
"Kessler believes the drives were likely from computers sold to third-party resellers that disassembled them and sold off the parts, and his company specifically avoided buying drives whose sellers indicated that the drives had been erased." 
 
The breakdown of the kind of data retrieved was: Personal and confidential documents, including financial information, 36%; e-mails, 21%; photos, 13%; corporate documents. 11%; Web browsing histories, 11%; DNS server information, 4%; miscellaneous data, 4%.
