Best way to destroy a hard drive?

Quote from horribilicus:

Drill a couple holes in the drive, including drilling through the middle of at least one IC chip visible on the circuit board.

Then put it into a Ziploc plastic "freezer bag", lay it on a cement floor, and smash it a half dozen times with a hammer.

Then put the mangled drive into a plastic trash bag and fill up the bag with the contents of your cat's litterbox. The more kitty logs, the better. Pour in a quart of liquid ammonia (like one of these ), which the cat litter will absorb.

Take the trash bag at least 5km from your house and toss it into someone else's garbage can. Ideally, a huge dumpster 4 feet by 4 feet by 8 feet, behind a large business or apartment complex.

I believe Evidence Eliminator is the original disk wipe clean software and it's come with a 30 day trial. Do a google search.
