Strong magnet works the best.. it jumbles up the codes on the disk so theyre unrecognizable.

actually it would have to be an extremely strong magnet for this to work. I actually have experience with an electro magnet degausser and hard drive destruction. Turns out that even though it was degaussed on a device that is said to destroy data it didnt. Media degaussers are not a cheap method either.

THERE IS NO BUILD LOG!

Unless you are some wack job that needs to be locked up for a kiddie porn addiction a higher end wipe tool (lots and lots of passes) will do the trick or use a magnet (electro magnet) or if you want it gone w/o a trace use termite (that isn't a joke).

The one we used to use was as big as your average kitchen table. God only knows how much it was, but since it was for a CC transaction company I'm sure it was the must expensive one available at the time <_<

this one wasnt little or light. it took four of us to carry. It was used to remove classified data from hard drives. just because we were bored we threw one back in after we degaussed it for the amoutn of time required. it fired right up. dont know how long it would have lasted but it was long enough to get data from. We were like oh shit. guess its back to hitting them with a hammer.
