Zusammenfassung:A media declassification device receives a media component such as an SSD or magnetic disk drive, and eradicates any remnants of sensitive data stored thereon by physical agitation and dismantling the media component. A cutting wheel or die rotates in close tolerance to an interior surface of a cutting chamber, and cutters or protrusions on the cutting wheel engage the media component against a leading edge of the cutting chamber for shearing and/or cutting fragments of the media component into the cutting chamber. A screen at an opposed side of the cutting chamber has apertures that limit a maximum size of particles passing out of the cutting chamber.
