What Happens To Donated Hard Drives?We will never boot from a hard drive before it has been wiped of data. Hard drives we are going to keep are overwritten seven times in the process of testing. If we are not going to reuse a hard drive, it is physically destroyed in our facility before we send it to a responsible e-waste recycler. We use a program called Darik’s Boot and Nuke to wipe your data from the hard drive. If you would like to erase your hard drive you can use one of the following programs: AcknowledgementsWith many thanks to our donors, we appreciate the continuous contribution of all our donors and would like to express our gratitude and acknowledge the businesses who have donated computers to us in the past.
VolunteeringWe are always looking for skilled volunteers to help us test components, refurbish computers, repair public computers, strip received donations and maintain our shop. If you have skills that we can use please contact the computer recycling team to arrange a time to visit for more information. For more information, contact the Computer Recycling Team at The Working Centre at (519)743-1151 ext. 225 or by email. |
