Yes, we do. Our service covers all of Gateshead, including Saltwell, Dunston, Wrekenton, Deckham, Sheriff Hill and Teams, plus nearby Newcastle upon Tyne, South Shields, Sunderland and Durham.
How are SSDs different from hard drives?
SSDs store data differently, so traditional overwriting and degaussing are not reliable on their own. They should be cleared using the drive's built-in secure erase or sanitise functions, or cryptographic erase for encrypted drives, with verification. If that cannot be confirmed, SSDs should be shredded to a small particle size.
