Here are some common ways people try to get rid of their PC hard drives & why they should use The Guardian Hard Drive Destroyer instead:

Shipping a hard drive off to be destroyed is a major risk and leaves you open to liability. Witnessing it firsthand and getting a certificate will help.
Using the delete key/recycle bin on your desktop doesn't erase data.
Overwriting data with software is very time consuming and not 100% effective.
Reformatting a disk drive requires you to have drive installed and powered up.
New technology may soon make recovery of overwritten hard drives easier. Who knows what technology will be available to criminals in the near future to use for data recovery?
Degaussing (magnetic destruction) doesn't give visible proof of destruction and doesn't always work. Also, the magnetic shielding on new disk drives is powerful and can be harmful to people near the magnetic fields.
Hard drive shredding machines are loud, bulky, and break down. Many of them are not portable so they can't be used for on-site hard drive destruction.

Destroying a hard drive is the best way to insure your data safety!
