Aleratec Introduces Its Highest Capacity High-Speed Hard Disk Drive Duplicator Sanitizer

Chatsworth, CA – October 29, 2013 – Aleratec Inc., an award-winning digital duplication technology manufacturer with customers worldwide, today announced the release of the 1:24 HDD Copy Cruiser High-Speed. The highest capacity model in Aleratec’s line of SATA HDD Duplicators and Sanitizers, the 1:24 is a stand-alone unit, requiring no computer to run, and can clone up to 24 hard disk drives or sanitize up to 25 hard disk drives at once with data transfer speeds up to a 120MB/s.

“The 1:24 HDD Copy Cruiser High-Speed is an industrial-level unit with the kind of speed and capacity that makes cloning and sanitizing large batches of hard disk drives virtually effortless,” notes Perry Solomon, Aleratec President and CEO. “Setup is fast and it produces perfect clones and backups.”

The high-capacity 1:24 HDD Duplicator and Sanitizer allows IT professionals to clone computer systems by performing a sector-by-sector copy, including partition and boot sector information, from a single source hard disk to up to 24 target drives, regardless of brand, operating system or format of the drives. Part of Aleratec’s secure sanitization protocol, the 1:24 incorporates Secure Erase technology, a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-88 accepted technique for properly purging hard drives. In addition, the 1:24 HDD Copy Cruiser High-Speed includes the Certified Sanitization label, meaning that hard drives sanitized with the 7-pass overwrite of this unit have been independently verified by a leading forensic data recovery services organization that all digital data stored on the drive had been permanently destroyed and meet the criteria of NIST 800-88.
