The "Degausser" uses a bank of lead acid batteries and strong magnetic field to make sure your files are never, ever seen again.
We're told the vault-like device sells for $19,000, but send in your own drives to Ontrack Data Recovery and we're told they'll destroy everything on it for $25.
Dubbed the "Degausser DG.02", the unit is fed by a large supply of DC current generated by sealed lead acid batteries. Using magnetic field, OnTrack claims the Degausser can wipe a drive in four seconds. It works with tapes, diskettes, ZIP drives, cassettes.
