Items required for "sure fire" disk cleaning methodology. qty. 1 hard drive to clean qty. 1 high velocity military rifle I usually use a .223 round, but other parts of the world may prefer .308(7.62x51) or 7.62x54. qty. what number of rounds you feel like of previously described firearm place drive in front of dirt embankment position yourself ~100'/30M (you want to get some practice in don't you?)from the target, hrrrm, drive. begin target practice, hrrrm, drive cleaning, until drive is thoroughly destroyed, hrrrm, cleaned. retrieve spent brass ( you do reload don't you?), hrrrm, drive cleaning materials (this next step is optional depending on how environmentally conscious you are) pick up remains of target, hrrrm, cleaned hard drive and dispose of properly. remember, always thoroughly clean your firearm, hrrrm, drive cleaning tool after use. there, that should do it diana
