Bleeding Edge Byte 025: Melting Hard Drives With Thermite

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Features, Mods / Hacks, Science, Storage, Videocasts


We know many people who are wary of discarding their old hard drives, especially after the drives have died without offering the option to reformat. We know people who have opened them up and scratched up the platters manually, and others who just have a drawer full a bunch of drives. At Gear Live’s , Pablos of the Shmoo Group asked everyone to bring their old hard drives so that we could give them a proper burial. The result? An 8,000-degree hard drive meltdown, thanks to a little thermite.
