Is the hard drive working?? If so why not buy a 20 dollar enclosure and use it for a backup/storage device. I just did it when I upgraded my hard drive and it is handy to have that external hard drive for various reasons. Just a thought.

Best way to destroy the drive?

Take it apart and use the disks for Christmas tree ornaments

Sledge-o-matic

Drop it in a wood chipper

Hydraulic Press

If you fish in salt water, drop it on your favorite deep water fishing spot.

If you own firearms, use it for target practice.

Thermite works good

Got a welder? A cutting torch is the final solution.
