I still have a bunch of HDDs downstairs that I need to get rid of. I haven't thought of shooting them. I think I ask my father if that's allowed at his club.[img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4373/35734799443_53cb20ef13_z.jpg[/img]

imo the best thing to do with old drives is to buy an external housing with USB or FireWire support and then get a long cord, and run it under your desk. Unless you dont want to keep the drive then DL a free program like "Drive nuke" (one we had to use @ school to get some old comps running again) and wipe that drive.

If I ever need to ditch a hard drive because someone is after it im going to smash it up into pieces and start mailing/throwing the pieces all over. Go and mail a piece to each state and then toss some pieces in towns within driving distance so people cant track the mailing.[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/Mobojo/Sigs/Sig2.jpg[/img]

Take the drive apart and then throw it in a box of refrigerator magnets.
Thats what I do.
I have a rubbermaid tub of refrigerator magnets of all sized and etc. I have seperated the magnets and over the years, everytime someone has given us one, I just break out the magnet and throw it in there.
When a drive is done, I de-assemble it and throw it in there and shake it up. I leave it in there for awhile. In fact, I have a few in there right now.
Every once in awhile I shake the box, pull out the pieces, unstick the magnets, run them over the platters again a few times, then toss them in and shake the container again.
