Secure Drive Wiping

Software sanitization done to a standard, not a vibe — multi-pass overwrites, full-surface verification, and a certificate proving every sector reads zero.

Wiped, verified, and proven

Wiping a drive properly means more than running a tool and trusting it. EndByte runs multi-pass overwrites to NIST 800-88 and DoD 5220.22-M standards across a dedicated wipe bench, with every drive monitored through every pass.

Then comes the part most providers skip: a full-surface read-back of every sector. If anything other than zeros comes back, the drive fails — and failed drives don't get a second chance, they get physically destroyed. Only drives that pass complete verification earn a certificate.

Because wiped drives keep their hardware value, software sanitization is also what powers our free destruction program — if we keep the verified drives afterward, the entire service can cost you nothing.

What's included

Every wipe engagement, regardless of volume.

Serial-level intake audit

Every drive is logged by serial number on arrival, opening an unbroken chain of custody.

Multi-pass sanitization

Industrial-grade overwriting, monitored in real time through every pass.

Full-surface verification

A complete read-back of every sector. No verification, no certificate.

Automatic failure handling

Any drive that fails verification is physically destroyed — never returned as 'probably fine'.

Per-drive certificates

Serial, method, date, and verification result — formatted for compliance review.

Disposition your way

Verified drives returned to you, retained under the free program, or responsibly recycled.

How it works

01
Intake

Drives arrive by pickup or drop-off; serials logged, custody opens.

02
Wipe

Multi-pass overwrite on the bench, monitored end to end.

03
Verify

Full-surface read-back; failures route to physical destruction.

04
Certify

Per-drive certificates delivered; custody closes on record.
