Today in Arcib we had an interesting event. We had to make sure, no one will be able to recover data from 4 disks – to destroy them. It turned out a little bit more difficult than it sounds. First, it is not easy to disassemble the drives. Than the platters are pretty tough and it took quite some time to drill through and heat them, in the end we took the head magnets for us, we drilled a whole in the platters, heated them to 1000 degrees fahrenheit and we concluded it will be very hard to recover anything from these platters… A got a few of the strong magnets for myself :)
