What do you folks do when a hard drive "dies" (i.e. you cannot get it work in 
your PC) and you wish to dispose of it?  I'm not worried about they physical 
disposal (I'll save it for electronic recycling) if I can be confident that 
the data on won't be readable by someone with advanced tools.  So the 
question is, how do you make sure that the data cannot be read.

Thanks
