    These were my thoughts. I know that may e-waste recyclers purchase hard-drive boards but what is the best way to destroy the information but still allow me to sell them? I plan on taking pics of each hard drive scrap for documentation (may be a little too much, but at least i can sleep well)
    Here is a breakdown of a 5" HD by someone, the breakdown of a standard HD would be the same. I take the platters and wipe them with the HD magnets. There will be nothing left to be retrieved after that. http://www.scrapmetalforum.com/showt...ht=Mechanic688
