>Not sure what's going to happen to the 3590 carts... Some examples of what can be done, depending on requirements: - If re-deploying 3590's, the Data Security Erase command can be used. This is available from a CBT program (I believe), or our TelTape for z/OS or TelTape for Windows products. - Also if re-deploying, 3590's can be systematically overwritten. Our Windows product also "certifies" so you will know which cartridges are error-free and which fail, as well as having the data overwrittten. - Otherwise, Secure Media Destruction services can be contracted. This involves an optional step of degaussing the 3590's on-site, followed by transportation to a destruction facility. Our partner uses a Waste-To-Energy process that minimizes environmental impact. The on-site degaussing step is performed more frequently these days.
