OMG CEX what have you not done

Yet someone who assumes that a third party will erase their drives for them probably shreds paperwork before throwing it in the recycling.

I think the implication is that he has sold drives through CeX before with data on them and assumed they would thoroughly wipe them before selling them on and now wants compensation incase someone has got hold of his data and has or might misuse it.

Given the rest of his post though...

Well I don't know what CEX actually do but if they do claim to wipe drives then he doesn't know that they haven't wiped the drives he sent so doesn't really have much basis to complain. If they don't wipe drives but simply resell them then well... he's silly for not wiping them himself.

Rofl copter.
A new drive is about 40 quid, a second hand one from a dodgy shop is basically worthless.

Do you really think they will bother to blank the drive before selling it on?

Well it depends on what data you find on it that determines worth :D.



Iirc a data recovery company bought a couple hundred second hand drives and were able to pull data back from ~70% of them. Of that 70% 25% were complete no recovery needed.

I'll try and find the article.

Kind of my point earlier.

A SH DD is a bit like SH underwear or socks, I am sure it is available, but why would you do it? :confused:

(And, more to the point. Why would you not expect that there might not be "Consequences" :p )
