Not dealing with any HIPAA stuff, just nervous customers that are afraid to give me their computers for recycling due to the data on the hard drive. Just trying to assure them the data is destroyed otherwise I just take the hard drive out and leave it with them.
Another barrier to obtaining computers is, customers always have data on their old computer they still want but don't know how to retrieve it. What's the best way to do it, hook up the old HDD to the new computer via external HDD adapter or what?
