How to wipe a broken disk? I tried COPYWIPE from ultimatebootdisk as
my preferred solution, but it takes ages or hangs.
For whatever it's worth, I used to work for a company that reconditioned
or trashed used computers from corporations. For disposal of hard disks
that presumably held sensitive data, we simply took a sledge hammer to
them and wacked them enough times so that the casing and disks were
crushed. I don't know if this satisfies the legal requirement, but it
probably does the moral one.
