    Taking apart CD drives is a time consuming, losing battle. Yes the buyers pay good on the boards. I did the math/breakdown on 500 pounds of drives, and in the end the amount gained from hours of work was about 35-40.00. Now I wait until I have a full gaylord and sell them as is. I can do something more productive in those several hours and end up making more than I would have breaking down the drives.
