Destruction of CD R/RW media
 

Connecting and getting the device running was no problem, as it only requires plugging in the power connector and switching the device ON.

In the following tests, we will show an image of the media before and after the destruction procedure.

The operation LED will light green during loading and when the destruction process has ended, the disc will be eject automatically.

During the destruction process the LED will light amber:

We also timed the actually destruction process itself (Start/stop of the orange LED) with an online times, and here is our results:

CD-R/W and DVD±R/RW media

DVD±R DL media

 

CD-R/W media destruction:

The Data on the disc is destroyed over the complete length of the media. To make it visible that the destruction has succeeded, 3 circles are burned on the media afterwards.


CD-R (8 cm):

Before

After

Again, the Data on the disc is destroyed over the complete length of the media. To make it visible that the destruction has succeeded, 3 circles are burned on the media afterwards.

Before

After

Again, the Data on the disc is destroyed over the complete length of the media. To make it visible that the destruction has succeeded, 3 circles are burned on the media afterwards.
