Hi Venti
that could be done the magnetic way, a very secure way is let them spin
up and expose then this way to a magnetic strenght >2 tesla, some models
wil be a screeching noise heard until they come to a halt, this way not
even the tracking is readable anymore ;) .. or let them spinn up and use
an 1kg hammer with full strengt
if the drives need to be available for other things, there are a lot of
lowlevel formater resolving that issue but that will be timeconsuming.
but take care, if you distroy data which should be archived for 5 years
acording the law you could be sued, pointing to your boss gave the order
doesn't work in this case.
Just my 5 cent's

Hi all.
As some of you know, I work at a money laund... financial
company. Some time ago, the question arose, how to effectively
destroy data safely and securely in an easy way?
How does your company deal with hard disks (or any media) that
needs to be decommissioned? Do you just dd a few times over it?
Or rather let a professional company shred your media to little
bits?
