There is no way that works. Forensic data recovery will recover every bit of data that is "erased." They can even get data off a disk that has had a 7 pass/rewrite done to it.
Only a strong electromagnet will do that he wants.
i was lying. geeze....

go into a metal or welding shop and tell them to throw it into the furnace for 100 dollars or something

The CIA erases then overwrite the erased data 35 times and they shred their hard drives so that every piece is no bigger than an eighth of a inch. They then ship the pieces to Ghana in Africa in an electronics dump yard. And guess what? Foreign spy agency go there and scoop up all the bits and piece and they still manage to get some confidential info from them.
So I don't think there's anything you can do to permanently erase a hard drive.

I'll say it again. Strong acid (not the hippie-kind)
Or HF acid, which in itself is weak(as an acid), but it's very corrosive, the most corrosive acid known to man

one barrel of 45% HCl for the metal pieces and one barrel of HF for silicon based semiconductors should do the trick.

Buy a 50 dollar laptop on craigslist or buy a new hard drive and install windows. Try the magnet and see if it works. I'm pretty sure a magnet won't hurt anything other than the hard drive.
Why doesn't your friend either encrypt his laptop, or back everything up and put the stuff he wants to hide on a thumb drive? Put the thumb drive on your night stand and shove it up your ass if you hear your door get kicked down (lol). Or just encrypt the thumb drive.
I'm pretty sure data can be recovered from any program that will wipe a hard drive in 30 seconds. You need to run several passes with a bootable disc such as boot and nuke which takes hours.

Transfer everything sensitive to an SD card (or better, microSD) and just flush it down the toilet or something.

I say if you have a little more time, DBAN. If it needs to be quick, thermite. Once you light it it is almost impossible to stop because water will vaporize instantly and cause it to explode (steam), and since the reaction "creates" it's own oxygen, CO2 and other inert gasses won't smother it. Though it is dangerous to light and stuff, just make a brick "oven" so that when you light it, the molten metal will gather on the bottom, and won't spill and light things on fire. Something like this: | <-- magnesium fuse | |----|----| |Thermite | | Here | | | |--- ----| |Object | |to be | |destroyed| |- - - - -| <-- grille to let metal fall down | | |Collection| |pool for | |molten | | metal | ----------- ----------- Not to scale...
But, hell whatever floats your boat.

Also, I'll take a few minute to debunk a major myth.
MAGNETS DO NOT ERASE ANYTHING ON A HARDDRIVE (anymore)
Only powerful electromagnets in research labs will damage a hard drive. Possibly a junk yard electromagnetic might do a little something, but nothing to fuck up anything.
Back in the day a 99 cent magnet could wipe a floppy disk clean. Companies have become smarter and have removed the magnetic pieces and replaced them by other non magnetic material.

I like the magnet idea.
If done right, they might not be able to get you for "destroying evidence."

This is a stupid thread. If your that worried you need to dispose of the laptop now . Once the police come to your door it's too late.
It's that simple.
Destroy it now or you will get busted with it later.
No way around it .

just shatter the disk in the hard drive, they are really brittle so find out where it is in the laptop and stab fuck out of it.
