Wipe it!

Phase five

Phase five

A wiperack is a system that removes all data on the hard disk drive and verifies that the hard disk drive is not damaged. The wiperack stores this information in the barcode sticker.

The amount of time that the hard disk drive stays in the wiperack depends on the capacity and speed of the hard disk drive. Because of this, the ‘wiping process’ can be ready in an hour, but also after a few days.
