Well, there is, but you'll lose out on the trade-in value: an industrial 
  shredder will pretty well take care of any data recovery issues you 
might have.

This is, in fact, the preferred way of some corporations to 'surplus' 
old HDD's. That's why my ex-Motorola 7600 came with no hard drive in it...

Then if you want to be showy about it, about a half-pound of thermite 
will do it, too. ;-)
