I learned an important life lesson today.

funnily, I would feel safer disposing of a hdd full of porn than one without. why? because a drive full of porn is a drive empty of confidential documents. now run along, end user. you are no match for the geek.

Porn can be revelatory of your taste on the matter and as such is an information about you, along with the info on where you got it and when you watched it.

Funilly enough confidential documents are often on the same hard drives as porn. There was also a game or two released with porn pics inside, big games. Turned out one of the employees was hiding them in the game files and it has been released with them. True story.

Is it you or your HDDs learned an important life lesson?
Also, the one with 'Fragile' stick actually LIED about its fragility? If so, it deserved what happened. Not sure about the others.

Edit: there are obviously two so-called 'Fragile' HDDs

Truth be said, these old HDDs you just need to hammer a bit, the casing will be intact, the data inside will be all lost u.u
But I can understand the pleasure of destroying anything with a sledgehammer!

You're sure? I've seen some of these odl guys be lost after falling on the grond, usualy hammering even not destroying will fill it with so many bad blocks that it became a good brick.

"problem two: hdds are drill proof."

Erm... no? What did you try to drill them with?! A cobalt HS goes through that like a hot knife through butter.

also the point of drilling, the photo show he was drilling the main shaft/core, try drilling over the platers, it should cut in like butter.

I may have been using crappy drill bits, but I did try drilling those areas. I tried over and under the platers, and then the main screw hole, in which only the screw was removed by the drill.
