Ziperase NVMe Drive Eraser

Certified U.2 and M.2 NVMe Drive Erasure in a Single Unit

Purpose-Built NVMe Drive Erasure

Process high-volume NVMe workloads faster while maintaining certified compliance from the first drive to the last. Erase U.2 and M.2 NVMe drives to NIST SP 800-88 R2 and IEEE 2883:2022. Eight hot-swap bays running Ziperase Array Erase, our certified data erasure software, preinstalled and licensed so the unit is ready out of the box.

High-Volume NVMe Drive Erasure

Loose U.2 and M.2 NVMe drives arrive in large, mixed batches from enterprise refreshes and data center decommissioning. Standard wiping rigs force technicians to switch form factors mid-batch, slowing bench throughput, while basic sector overwrites miss hidden overprovisioning areas and stall compliance audits. Facing backlogs, many facilities resort to shredding, destroying resale value on drives that could otherwise be reused.

Data Center Decommissioning

Certified

Ziperase software is ADISA Product Assurance & Common Criteria EAL2 certified, ensuring full compliance with IEEE 2883:2022 & NIST SP 800-88 R1 & R2 guidelines.

Multi-Format U.2 and M.2 NVMe Erasure

Eight front-loading bays take U.2 drives directly, and four included adapter trays mount M.2 NVMe drives into those same bays. Mixed NVMe stock runs through one station, one process, and one set of reports. *Does not support SATA M.2 drives.

Operational Benefits of Certified NVMe Erasure

Continuous Batch Processing: Pull completed drives and load new ones while other bays keep erasing, keeping the station running without pausing the line.
Unified Form Factor Processing: Run front-loading U.2 drives and adapter-mounted M.2 drives through one station, one process, and one set of reports.
Eliminate Operator Pull Errors: Match physical chassis bay numbers 1:1 with the onscreen interface so technicians pull the right drive the first time.
Recover Secondary Asset Value: Sanitize and certify reusable NVMe SSDs for resale instead of destroying functional hardware.
Turnkey Deployment: Start erasing immediately with preinstalled Array Erase software and 25 included Array Erase licenses.

ITAD Solutions

Continuous Hot-Swap NVMe Processing

Pull a finished drive and load the next one while the other bays keep erasing. Drives complete in minutes, and nothing waits for a full batch, so the unit runs continuously through high volumes of NVMe stock. Physical bay numbers on the chassis match the numbers on screen, so operators pull the right drive first time and every report ties back to the bay it came from.

Turnkey NVMe Erasure Station

The Ziperase NVMe Eraser sanitizes U.2 and M.2 NVMe drives to NIST SP 800-88 R2 and IEEE 2883:2022 guidelines. Equipped with eight hot-swap bays running preinstalled Ziperase Array Erase software, the unit arrives with 25 Array Erase licenses and ready to process drives out of the box. This allows ITAD teams to deploy a dedicated NVMe erasure workflow without additional setup or hardware configuration.

Array Erase

Tamper-Proof NVMe Erasure Reporting

Erasure records go where your business already keeps them. Reports generate in PDF, CSV, and JSON, and Array Erase integrates with your existing ITAM software. No internet connection is required to erase or report. Hidden drive area detection reports on regions outside the standard addressable space, so nothing goes unaccounted for.

Certified NVMe Erasure Standards

The NVMe Eraser runs Ziperase Array Erase software, certified for ADISA Product Assurance and Common Criteria EAL2. The unit meets IEEE 2883:2022 and NIST SP 800-88 R2 guidelines across Purge and Clear methods, including cryptographic erasure. Every sanitized drive produces a digitally signed, tamper-proof erasure certificate to satisfy client audits and support R2v3 and NAID AAA compliance requirements offline.

Our Certifications

ITAD ERP & System Integrations

The NVMe Eraser connects with your existing ITAD workflows and inventory management systems through Ziperase Command Center. Native integrations with major ITAD ERP platforms, including RazorERP, MakorERP, and IQ Reseller, automatically push erasure records, serial numbers, and device specs into your asset database. Sanitization logs and certificates also sync to the Ziperase Customer Portal for centralized audit management across all your processing locations.

Ziperase NVMe Eraser Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which drive form factors does the Ziperase NVMe Eraser support?

A: The appliance features eight front-loading U.2 drive bays and includes four M.2 adapter trays, allowing you to process both U.2 and M.2 NVMe drives in a single station.

Q: How fast does the NVMe Eraser sanitize a drive?

A: Drives typically process in 2 to 5 minutes using standard algorithms like NIST SP 800-88 R2 Purge and Clear, with most drives utilizing fast cryptographic erasure.

Q: Can technicians load or unload drives without interrupting active erasures?

A: Yes. The system supports true continuous hot-swapping, allowing operators to pull completed drives and insert new ones while other bays keep erasing without pausing the batch.

Q: How does the unit prevent operators from pulling the wrong drive?

A: Physical bay numbers on the chassis correspond 1:1 with the onscreen user interface so operators pull the right drive the first time, and every report ties directly back to its physical slot.

Q: Does the NVMe Eraser require an active internet connection?

A: No. The system operates completely offline, allowing drive sanitization, hidden area detection, and report generation to run locally without internet connectivity.

Q: Which sanitization standards and certifications does the unit support?

A: The preinstalled Array Erase software is ADISA Product Assurance and Common Criteria EAL2 certified, meeting IEEE 2883:2022 and NIST SP 800-88 R2 guidelines across Purge and Clear methods. It produces digitally signed, tamper-proof certificates that support R2v3 and NAID AAA compliance requirements.

Q: What report formats are generated, and does it integrate with ITAD ERPs?

A: Reports generate in PDF, CSV, and JSON formats. Through Ziperase Command Center, the system integrates with ITAD management platforms, including RazorERP, MakorERP and IQ Reseller.

Q: What is included out of the box with the NVMe Eraser?

A: The station arrives ready out of the box with Ziperase Array Erase software preinstalled, 25 Array Erase licenses included, four M.2 adapter trays, and a 1-year hardware warranty exchange.
