  • Page 7: Start Up Procedure

    SHREDDER DIFFERENCES - HD, SSD & HD-SSD MODELS HD models have 1.5” or 3/4” wide cutters. They can shred solid state drives, but not to a secure particle size. SSD models have 3/8” wide cutters. They cannot shred hard disc drives, which require much wider cutters. HD-SSD models use two separate cutter heads to allow you to destroy both magnetic hard drives as well as electronic media in the same shredder.
