Plextor Rolls out CD/DVD destroyer!

[SUBMAN1]

I think I want one of these. 6 minutes isn't bad either. To make your hard drive safe take a (according to the DoD - to make it safe from an electron microscope) 7 times overwrite with random bit patterns and takes a lot longer to do.

So if you bank on your computer and you don't want theives at your data (I've had my identity stolen twice alread in my life so having things like this is practically mandatory), this looks like a good thing to add to my collection fo shredders and data eliminators.

Plexeraser, Mess-up with your DVD and CD　 Plextor will soon ship a new kind of DVD/CD combo, the PLEXERASER, which has ONLY one function, to destroy the data stocked on the DVD/CD... Plextor state that you will only need 6 minutes to completely erase ALL data on a DVD or a CD... which is somehow quite long if your local Police decided to knock at the door.
