It destroys SSDs and a wide range of flash-based media into small particles while maintaining an office-friendly footprint and straightforward controls.
Why This Product Matters Today
Modern organizations store sensitive data on far more than hard drives—SSDs, USB devices, phones, optical media and other compact electronics can all leave a facility with recoverable information. A dedicated media shredder helps bring multiple destruction tasks into one controlled workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What media can the Proton PDS-88 shred?
The PDS-88 is designed for a range of solid-state and electronic media, including SSDs, USB devices, phones, optical discs and similar supported items.
Why use a shredder for SSDs?
SSDs cannot be sanitized by magnetic degaussing. Physical shredding destroys the storage media into small pieces and is commonly used as part of secure solid-state disposal procedures.
Can I shred devices that still contain batteries?
Remove batteries and follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions before processing electronic devices. Battery-containing devices can create safety hazards if shredded improperly.
Who is the PDS-88 best suited for?
It is well suited to government offices, enterprise IT teams, data centers and regulated organizations that need recurring in-house destruction of mixed solid-state and electronic media.
