Solent Laptops Limited offer a Safe, Secure & Affordable way to erase your computer data.
With the use of our Data Erasure software, we can provide Adisa Security Certification for all erasures performed giving you a simple but safe solution to your data destruction needs without the need to destroy hardware.
Our software allows the secure erasing of HDD and SSD drives connected to any computer. They can use both software and firmware-based secure erase methods:
Once every device has been successfully erased, our software will generate a certificate containing the serial number and model of the device, the erase method used, and the erasure timestamp - among other details.
This signature is stored as an encrypted object in a MySQL database, and since only the software used can decrypt the information, it cannot be meaningfully altered by other means.
If you would like more information on how Solent Laptops can help with your data erasure needs, please email enquiries@solentlaptops.com for more information & pricing.
Solent Laptops offer a complete product testing solution in order to check the condition of the most important components of any computer. All tests can be performed by technicians while an erasure or imaging operation is ongoing in the background.
The historic information stored on the drives by the SMART diagnosis firmware is retrieved and analysed to determine if the drive is in a healthy state
Optical drives can be tested in a non-disruptive way, just by inserting a test CD/DVD that contains a specific pattern of files that the program will read automatically.
A voice file can be played to check the left and right channels of the sound components.
Our software on the clients establishes a connection with the server and sends/receives several control packets using both network interfaces.
All USB ports can be tested by inserting any USB device. The software detects and displays the model of the device and compares the total number of detected devices with the expected number.
Our software detects when the user input is coming from the integrated touchpad on laptops, which allows us to verify the cursor movement and the press of buttons.
Our software presents a keyboard layout on screen and provides a visual feedback of every key pressed and released.
The panels of laptops and monitors can be tested by showing the basic colours successively, so dead/lit pixels and other anomalies are easily spotted.
Our software activates when it detects the presence of a Touchscreen, allowing the operator to test the touch input.
The software informs of the actual percentage of useful capacity and of the current charge level of the batteries. The percentage charged during the auditing session is also displayed. A battery duration test that discharges the batteries until they are exhausted and then saves the total time elapsed into the database is also included.
The Auditing process opens a window and shows the video captured by the webcam, so the technician can verify the quality of the video stream.
The clients can be started in a special mode to run a comprehensive memory test

Our Disk Imaging software integrates the capability of both creating and restoring Windows, Mac OS X and Linux disk images through a Local Area Network. GPT partitions are fully supported in UEFI machines.
Our Image Maker component allows the capability to create bespoke images and keep them in a centralised image library. The images are completely disk independent. They can be restored to drives smaller or bigger than the original, and even to drives using different interfaces and technologies (SATA to SCSI, magnetic to solid-state, etc).
The technicians can also decide if they want to both securely erase the drives first and restore the image immediately afterwards, so the full process is completed without further human intervention. While the drives are being erased or the images are being restored, the machines never get blocked and the technicians can still perform auditing or testing operations on the machines.
If you would like more information on how Solent Laptops can help with your re-imaging requirements, please email enquiries@solentlaptops.com for more information & pricing.
