Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between shredding and crushing?

Hard drive crushers use powerful hydraulic pressure to destroy drives physically, bending and breaking internal components to prevent data recovery. Hard drive shredders reduce drives to 2-millimeter particles for complete destruction. 

Crushers excel at destroying individual drives quickly, while shredders are ideal for high-volume destruction, processing hundreds or even thousands of drives per hour.

Yes, our MediaVise® destroyers are made with NSA guidelines in mind, and all equipment helps you meet NIST SP 800-88 guidelines with complete chain-of-custody documentation.

I’m pleased to share that the new crusher (MV-HDD) is performing exceptionally, significantly better than our old one. It handles hard drives efficiently, including IDE magnetic spinners and SATA drives.

It’s also great to see that, as per the manual, the crusher can handle cellular phones, adding to its versatility. The processing time is efficient, taking just 33 to 35 seconds per load.

Overall, this crusher is proving to be both effective and efficient.

The performance of the MD-HTP-A2 from Phiston has created a need in Sweden,
and I must say the upgrades they have done recently have been fabulous.

Phiston has been a fantastic partner for us, they listen to their customer, invent and simplify to our needs and stand behind their product; in my opinion, they are the only true high-volume media destruction game in town.

The Phiston team was not only able to provide a product well within our timeline goals, but they also worked closely with us through the proof of concept process, allowing us to fully understand and provide input to drive exactly what we wanted.

Ali, Raul, and their teams partnered closely with us from start to finish and delivered the solutions we needed to address Hard Drives, SSD’s & Flash media, and we now have a solution to shred network assets.
