Abstract[English] A hard drive recycling system and method receive a hard drive comprising a rare earth magnet in one or more peripheral corners or edges of the hard drive, moves the received hard drive along a guide track into a cutting position in which a plane of the cutting surface is transverse to a longitudinal axis of the guide track, in the cutting position, cuts the one or more peripheral corners or edges of the hard drive to form a rare earth magnet-containing portion and a hard drive body portion, removes by a first output the rare earth-magnet-containing portion, and removes by a different second output the hard drive body portion.[French] La présente invention concerne un système et un procédé de recyclage de disque dur recevant un disque dur comprenant un aimant aux terres rares dans un ou plusieurs coins ou bords périphériques du disque dur, déplace le disque dur reçu le long d'une piste de guidage dans une position de coupe dans laquelle un plan de la surface de coupe est transversal à un axe longitudinal de la piste de guidage, dans la position de coupe, coupe le ou les coins ou bords périphériques du disque dur pour former une partie contenant un aimant aux terres rares et une partie corps de disque dur, élimine par une première sortie la partie contenant un aimant aux terres rares, et élimine par une seconde sortie différente la partie corps de disque dur.
