Re: Destroying a hard drive for 100%. [Re: makaveli8x8]

Whats the blue stuff? And are you reliably submerging your platters? A hard drive needs to be sealed from outside contaminants, I know they dont come from they factory completely isolated from the outside atmosphere because of pressure concerns but they are filtered.

Lol, never mind, I didnt notice the photoshop job at first glance

I like the idea that was in one of Neal Stephenson's books. Basically the characters in the book had this special closet and built into the door frame (covertly, so no one else would know) were a series of powerful magnets. So if the feds came and seized the box, they'd unwittingly walk it out right through the magnets, wiping the entire system.

If you want to delete EVERYTHING on your hard drive quickly then you can download a program that basically gives you an extra button on your computer near the start menu. then if you need to destroy your hard drive within 5 seconds you click the button and EVERYTHING on your hard drive gets destroyed 100%. :laugh: not to sure where to download the program from though.

With my twitchy finger and mousepad, I have a feeling I would delete everything within say....10 minutes of downloading that program.

My trick is to do all of my illegetimate activities using ig-pay atin-lay. Thus far it has worked, because the ig-pays aven't-hay ot-gay e-may et-yay

We blew a HDD up with a shotgun... Funny thing is that "normal" shotgun shells didn't do shit, even from 10 feet. They blew off the labels and some covers, but the platter remained sealed and intact.

Then, my gun loving buddy pulls out a "00" shell. I think it has "bigger balls" than normal buckshot, and THAT thing blew a clean 3 inch hole right through.

We found the platter, and you could see the indentations of about 6 balls... It was awesome.

Moral of the story... If using the Shotgun FDisk method, use "00" shells.

The same ones that want a free Bachelor's Degree?

A broken clock is still correct twice a day.

I was in the military 6 years, in the Air Force. I'm no genius, but my IQ is 136.

To which Neal Stephenson book are you referring?

I loved Snow Crash, but I don't think that was in it.

myndreach- I can't use you...I've never met you!

I thought about joining the -insert armed forces division here- to get a free degree out of it. But right when I was most considering it, they called up my cousin. Who is nearing 40 years old, had fought in Desert Storm I and II already and was nearing retirement.

I said, if thats the kinda treatment I'm gonna get you can keep your GI Bill.

You ever put a CD or any kind of metal containing object in the microwave? Long story short: It hardly looks "untampered" when it's been in the microwave. I bet this would work well though.

We used to throw cds in a microwave for like 5 seconds at a time in our old dorm. They'd flash and leave a spiderweb pattern in the cd face.. it was cool and fun to watch, but it also stank to high heaven.
