Elecom SCR-CD0001 Disc Destroyer
by Blake Robinson on November 14, 2006

So you’ve just burned some top secret information to a CD, but evil ninjas are on your tail. They are, of course, bent on stealing said top secret information to use for all sorts of diabolical schemes. What do you do?

Simple, carry the Elecom SCR-CD0001. When those ninjas are finally closing in, you can just plug the SCR-CD0001 into an available USB port and insert your top secret disc. The device will then scratch the living shit out of the disc so that no one, not even ninjas with x-ray vision, can read it. The world is saved!

No word on pricing or availablity, but for the moment at least, it appear to only be available in Europe.

  • Who cares how much it costs? I doubt it will be less than a paper clip–which can, you know, do the exact same thing with only slightly more effort.

  • Here’s an even simpler 2-second media destruction device for only $12.99 US. It leaves an optical groove on the disc that can’t be polished out or recovered. Unlike shredding or microwaving, it creates no waste or toxic fumes, and promotes Recycling of the whole disc: http://www.DiscEraser.com

  • Take a pen or a key or a coin (or anything sharp) and scratch a line across the top (label side) of the cd from edge to centre. Good for those stupid AOL junkmail cds. Like ninjas even care about your top secret information.

  • 1. Break disc in two with bare hands, …..ijits.
    2. relax, have a beer.
