Hard Drive Eraser for 2.5 or 3.5 in. SATA Drives - 4Bay - Standalone
Product ID: SATERASER4
This hard drive eraser provides standalone, simultaneous drive erasing for up to four 2.5 in. or 3.5 in.
SATA hard drives or solid-state drives.
Save time with a four-bay, standalone eraser
Unlike hard-drive docking stations or adapters that require a computer connection and software to erase
drives, this hard drive sanitizer features standalone erasing that doesn’t require a host computer. This
avoids the hassle of connecting your drives to a host computer and protects your drives from external
security threats like remote data access.
The four-bay design maximizes efficiency by batching multiple drives in single erase projects, saving you
valuable time. The hard drive eraser supports USB 3.0, also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1, with file transfer
rates of up to 5Gbps.

Maximum versatility with multiple erase modes
Using industry-recognized erase modes, the hard drive eraser securely sanitizes the data from your 2.5
in. or 3.5 in. SSDs or HDDs. It supports nine erase modes including Quick Erase, Single and Multi-pass
Overwrites, Custom Erase, Secure Erase and Enhanced Secure Erase. The Multi-pass Overwrite (3-Pass
Full Disk Overwrite) erase procedures meet the requirements of DoD (5220.22-M) standards.
Support for a variety of erase modes makes this drive eraser perfect for virtually any professional
application. Single-Pass Overwrite is ideal for IT technicians and system administrators who decommission
and repurpose old hard drives, while Quick and Secure Erase, Single Pass Overwrite and Multi-pass
Overwrite modes (meeting DoD standards) are ideal solutions for research laboratories, health offices, law
offices and accountants who manage sensitive data and require secure erasing to avoid potential privacy
breaches.
In addition to supporting 2.5 in./3.5 in. SATA SSDs and HDDs, the hard drive eraser also works with 2.5
in. and 3.5 in. IDE hard drives, mSATA drives and SATA M.2 drives using a compatible StarTech.com

Hassle-free operation and erase log recording
The hard drive eraser features convenient menu navigation that ensures fast and efficient performance,
with push-button operation and a built-in LCD display that clearly identifies the erase modes and task
status. You can also connect the eraser to a computer to quickly access the drive that's connected to port-
1.
To ensure your records are complete for auditing, the hard drive eraser features a 9-pin serial port that
can connect to a serial printer to provide on-demand erase logs.
