    Must be like Christmas everyday for you. 43:52 is a wireless keyboard/trackpad with an internal rechargeable battery cell. The stand is the charger, and I would say you put the keyboard in the charger when not in use.

    You should use a rollcontainer, like they use them in supermarket. With the 2 racks on each side. I think you can carry 2 to 3 times more and they fit in elevators. And they are very stable and can be taken apart easily...

      Joan Lockwood You should have the shot I have. My wife has been wanting to see what he looks like. I showed her one of the 1st video where there was a fuzzy reflection of him, from a monitor or something. (Not good enough, she says) so I keep watching not really thinking about it and right there plain as day Ben walks by a mirror! It took a few minutes to pause at right time. But I have a crystal clear pic of Ben! That one she was happy with. Also she thinks he's a good looking guy!!!

      Nick Kalaitzidis How and when did you have that opportunity? I'm a really big fan. I'm always waiting for a new video to come out. If it's been 3 days, I'll check every hour to see if a new one is out yet. Ben's vids has helped me get through some problems I've had in my life and has been a huge inspiration. I'm from the U.S. and have considered getting myself there to meet him and to offer free help to teardown laptops or anything to help.

    Good haul of pc's!
    Want some free service of me scrapping laptops or something? I live in the U.S but would love to fly in and spend my time helping you scrap! (that would go nice on my bucket list)
    Pretty impressive. I know you've had bigger hauls of pc's but goodness that's a lot. I have followed your directions on a very small level. I have flyers and so far I've passed them around to some residential & a couple of very small businesses. My best haul was 2 Dells from 2004 & 2006. He also dug out what might have been a small server. It had 2 CPU sockets of different sizes, with only 1 CPU. The nice thing was, the CPU was a I486dx!!! On your top ten most valuable CPU's it was ranked #3. I was pretty happy about that! Plus he dropped it off on my birthday! Yay!!!
    I know that sounds pretty lame but I'm new and trying!
    KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK & INSPIRATION TO MANY!!!

    Hi, please make sure to remove those PCBs from the hard drives and resell those. For data recovery of another drive, sometimes you're trying to get a specific exact PCB. It would probably sit on your selling shelf for a few months/years, but would probably sell for at least $10 to $20 to some tech who would be overjoyed at this making his data recovery possible. :-)

    41:28 the method of choice for data disposal depends on several factors; value / type / sensitivity of the data, budget and thread model. Drilling ONE hole into the platter(s) is one of the quickest and cheapest methods, which only actually destroys the data that was stored in the area of the hole. Drilling holes will not protect against advanced data recovery methods, which might involve disassembly, physical restoration until "good enough", expensive specialised recovery gear and software. Drilling a hole only renders the device inoperable, and only protects against minor threads. It's actually kind of a gamble, because a dude with a drill certainly doesn't know in which area of the platter(s) sensitive data is located. Given a sufficient resell value, e.g. a good S.M.A.R.T. report and 1TB+, and no contractual obligation to physically destroy storage devices, one could just "sanitise" the thing by overwriting it with random data and or zeros. There are free tools that even implement special military grade algorithms, e.g. "DBAN". This process could take at least several hours, up to days. If it comes to physical destruction, there are even standards for post-destruction particle size, but that's mostly required by military and other government agencies that store extremely sensitive / secret data. Well, it's all about the thread model, the "what could possibly go wrong"; drilling one hole is probably safe enough for a customer service call centre or such. But i'd choose more thorough methods for an R&D department, or a virology lab.

    • @shaneyork300
      @shaneyork300 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fluffy Floofer Just ask Hillary Clinton's people how it's done. haha!!!
      On a serious note. I advertise that I can destroy harddrives upon request. What I do is open it up and completely dismantle everything. Then I take my dremmel drill and gouged out a couple of lines across each side of the platter.
      DO YOU THINK THAT'S EFFECTIVE ENOUGH???

    • @fluffyfloof9267
      @fluffyfloof9267 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Haha, yeah, Hillary (and her contractors) failed quite spectacularly at infosec / thread modelling. Your approach is certainly more thorough, and time-consuming. Depending on the storage density, i.e. bits per square cm, you might miss some sensitive data. One data recovery technique involves burnishing / polishing, so that the read head can "fly" over the platter's surface at the required distance, less than a hair's diameter, without hitting burrs. The original PCB of a hard disk drive, with the device's calibration profile, is not even required; there are some video examples here on YT that show special jigs. A fascinating topic. For forensic data recovery, it's irrelevant if one can restore 20 or 50 GB of the operating system, apps and games, when only a 200 KB fragment of e.g. browser history, a partial JPEG image, or a text file is recoverable. As i said, it depends on the thread model. If your customer's face melts when only a few kilobyte of their 1 TB HDD actually gets recovered, well… ;) …That's also why there's full disk encryption, in some drives even integrated into their ICs. Physical destruction prevents data recovery efforts. Search for "hdd shredder", here on YT ;)

  • @GRHmedia
    @GRHmedia 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The method of dealing with the drives is a bit of waste. There are a number of ways to ensure that data can't be recovered and still leave the drive in working order. DOD level wipe will work. Electromagnet with pulse system is probably the fastest. Just don't make actual physical contact with it.

    • @Treddian
      @Treddian 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      DOD wipes, physically shreds, and then burns. I'm not even kidding. Brand new stuff gets used for a mission and then data wiped, shredded, and burned. The NSA will tell you (or not) that ANYTHING which has EVER been saved to a drive is potentially recoverable regardless of how much wiping is done. It's a matter of luck and how much effort they'll put into the recovery effort.

    • @MarcUK
      @MarcUK 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's quicker for them in that small office environment to take the drives out and physically destroy them. If the business was closing, ain't nobody got time to install the software on 30+ computers and wait 4+ hours waiting for drives to be wiped? Just give me my hammer. :D

      @nick, but if there's a sticker with a valid key on the case then you can legally use that to install a fresh copy of windows. Just don't be like Eric Lundgren and order 28,000 discs from China that had windows software burnt onto them, he got sentenced to 15 months in prison. He said it was the windows restore software from the Dell website which is free to download. :-)
