Fascinating Facts About Computer Disposal

 

On top of all the chemicals and biohazards, your computer probably contains personal information. If this information falls into the wrong hands, you could be on the receiving end of identity theft and various forms of fraud.

 

 A computer’s hard drive stores data, and maintains an index of files. When you save a file, especially a large one, it is scattered around the hard drive in bits and pieces. Files also are automatically created by browsers and operating systems. When you open a file, the hard drive checks the index, then gathers the bits and pieces and reconstructs them.

When you delete a file, the links between the index and the file disappear, signalling to your system that the file isn’t needed any longer and that hard drive space can be overwritten. But the bits and pieces of the deleted file stay on your computer until they’re overwritten, and they can be retrieved with a data recovery program. To remove data from your hard drive permanently, it needs to be destroyed.

 

Computer Disposal and the EPA

Make sure when you recycle your old system you comply with the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") guidelines. Here are some basic facts on computer disposal that will help you.

According to the official EPA website epa.gov:

* The Environmental Protection Agency has strict regulations regarding the disposal of hazardous materials;
* Penalties for violations are distributed in the form of fines as well as Community Service;
* Nearly 250 million computers will become obsolete in the next five years;
* Many people discard computers every three to five years;
* In 2004, only 9 percent of personal computers retired in the U.K. were recycled.

Computers often hold personal and financial information, including passwords, account numbers, license keys or registration numbers for software programs, addresses and phone numbers, medical and prescription information, tax returns, and other personal documents. Before getting rid of your old computer, it’s a good idea to use software to “wipe” the hard drive clean. If you don’t, consider your old hard drive a 21st century treasure chest for identity thieves and information pirates.

Conclusion

TVs and computers can contain an average of four pounds of lead (depending on their size, make and vintage) as well as other substances of potential concern like chromium, cadmium, mercury, beryllium, nickel, zinc and brominated flame retardants. These materials need to be handled carefully and are potential health hazards.
