Greetings, We are looking at buying a moderate size commercial shredder to shred floppies and CD/DVD's to handle media that we either can't or are too tedious for our commercial degaussers. I am looking for something with a reasonable duty cycle and warranty that is designed to handle quite a bit of media. I can find lots of specific info on degaussers but I'm not having much luck finding shredders that specifically are rated for floppy and polycarbonate media and can handle a few hundred pieces a day. Most product documentations says "will handle paper, credit cards, CD's, and staples". But I'm sure there is a big difference between those that will take the occasional CD and those that will take floppies and CD's all day. Any recommendations would be appreciated. For those interested in degaussers: We have an HD-3 from Gartner products that is really nice. We are now looking at buying a larger HD-8800 to expand our "you bring it we'll nuke it" data destruction service. We've seen a surprising amount of mag media that won't fit in a standard hard drive degaussers. Who knew so many old large format video tapes and full size reels were still lurking in closets!
