uh, first thing comes to mind is to format them. but that would take a bazillion hours. what about just bending the metal part so as to make the disk non-functional? is your goal to make them unreadable or to dispose of them in an environmentally acceptable manner? you could heat 'em to partially warp them... :) mark

Donald, I am not a tree hugger or a whale lover so I don't see a problem with trashing them. I would delete any info with the 'puter. and slam them with a hammer, or simply break them in half, and trash them. If the info is really sensitive, you could wait until it's cold and burn them in your fireplace. Have fun, Phil
