Though shredded hard drives would be difficult to reuse, some of the materials left over can be recycled once shredded.
Hard
drives are composed of significant amounts of aluminum and magnetic materials.
Many varieties of electronic waste, as well as some hard drives, can contain
trace amounts of gold, silver, lead and other elements, all of which are
valuable if harvested. However, recycling efficiency of the trace elements
found in computer circuitry is low, and new developments in reclaiming them are
not fully developed. Despite the challenges to recycling shredded hard drive
parts, hard drive shredding is the most effective and sustainable method of
hard drive disposal compared to other methods like incineration, which
precludes recycling and in extremely rare cases does not ensure data
destruction. Hard drive shredding services are not as common as document
shredding services, though they are gaining prominence as stories about
identity theft and corporate espionage flood news headlines. Mobile hard drive
shredding services have emerged as a result of increasing demand.
