IF it’s time to give up on old PC, ensure hard drive is destroyed
There’s nothing quite like getting a new computer. It’s faster than Big Brown in the Preakness or Michael Phelps in any pool. It resembles a concept car compared to the rusty junker you 
swooned over three or four years ago. (Or maybe six or seven years ago.) It holds more than Lake Mead before the drought. 
But what do you do with that has-been computer that once housed all your electronic documents, music, photos and whatever else that comprises your digital life?
Should you pass it along to Mom or Dad? Do you have to worry about being sure all the data is really erased from the hard drive? Should you just set it at the curb on garbage day?
The only sure-fire way to be sure electronic files that resided on your old computer are really gone for good is to remove the disk drive and destroy it.
