I had to dispose of a hard drive that contained company sensitive material.Since it's easier to destroy the hard drive than wipe it clean (and it was only 3 gigs), I took it apart! I think the two metal disks inside can substitute as a tuning fork. And the magnets. Oh! The magnets!

You realize if somebody finds those parts and puts it back together, they can still get that info. You have to actually destroy the data containing parts of the hard drive, not just take it apart. I recommend melting it down and making fishing sinkers.

Oh yes. Absolutely. We have ways of making the equipment here unusable.

I find that 30 minutes or so in an 300-400 degree oven works well. Or, for the more daring, stick in the company microwave, turn it on, and run!

Maybe I'll throw grapes in there for good measure!
