Once you get in there you can take the HD platter off of the motor scratch the #### out of it and you won't have to worry about anyone getting what was on there.

HAHA! Thanks for all the replies. Maybe we should have a hard-drive smashing party? HPLovecraft can bring the bats, MrMastodonFarm can bring the anger, Jacks can bring the drills and Tyler12 can bring the knives! Everyone else is welcome to bring their favourite tool for causing maximum destruction!

I took the drives out already. I just need to get the proper screw driver to open them up and start smashing.

Cheers!
