    That depends what size the drives are. I did the break down on my buyers thread. Anything 40gb and higher on average you will get way more than scrap value from them. Misscrap just sent me a box of 20 drives and 3 1gb ram sticks and got paid almost $70 for them. You can fit about 30 hard drives in a flat rate box for $15.
