Hipaa and hard drives from a medical clinic

It seems logical that a person could take the board out of the hard drive and send the rest off to the crusher. Hard drive boards are what, $10 per pound. Would it be worth the trouble to get just the boards out? I will have to ask if my friend would be comfortable letting me take the boards out. Thanks for the replies.

The answer to this question is the same every time its asked, "It's up to you".

For me it is worth it but my life is very differient than your's. Mike
