Voting machines don’t use hard drives .

If they can shred cars they can shred hard drives !

[armyofprinciples]

There most definitely are such things. Not saying this tweet is correct, but multiple vendors provide on-location hard drive shredding.

Actually there are on-site hard-drive shredding companies so that you can be visually assured drives are shredded while-u-watch. Google ‘on site drive shredding’.

There are multiple companies that advertise hard drive shredding.
A hard drive shredder works by completely grinding up and destroying every single part of a hard drive using a heavy-duty , industrial shredder designed for electronics and other non-paper products . Some people choose to destroy their hard drive the DIY way, by using a hammer or drill, for example.

Then you should have not voted. There are absolutely hard drive shredding trucks. They are used to certify that hard drives are destroyed onsite for DOD compliance.

Of course there is such a thing.

The hard drive shredding truck visits our data center on a quarterly basis. All failed/decommissioned storage media goes into the truck and is turned into confetti.

Must suck to be proven so wrong, by so many, so quickly.

There is no such thing as a hard drive shredding truck.

Yes, there is. Anyone who's run a data center with massive disk storage farms in the Financial Services industry can tell you that.

Many firms such as the one I work for don't return drives to be "wiped" ... we have them shredded. That's in our contract with HDS, EMC and IBM for all the storage platforms from them that we own. They never get failed drives back. Those drives are pulled, locked in a secure room, replaced with new drives. Once a month the truck carrying the hard drive shredding equipment shows up, and shreds the drives. We have to keep the certification that those drives have been shredded on file for the regulators.

So...you gonna comment now?

[Vendome]

You’ve never heard of mobile hard drive shredding?

Uh, yes, there is. I’ve used one. They come to your site and shred your HDs while you watch it turned into metal shards. It’s expensive, but worth it for sensitive data you do not want out of your custody.

[bigbob]

Posts like yours are turning this site into fake news.

Pictures from the site show “Hard Drive Shredding” written on the back of the Truck.

Nothing should be shredded at a Georgia polling station. You should not vote!

Typically you would use a degausser.... smaller and less mess.
