The proper method for destruction is to wipe the drives, then shred them.
Yes for spinny drives.
For SSDs, when you delete something TRIM + physics ensures it’s really really gone all the time
Please stop shredding SSDs that can go on to a 2nd life…
Indeed. I was only speaking to HDDs considering OP’s image meme.
I figured, but I wanted to point it out because I’m so tired of seeing good SSDs get shredded or otherwise destroyed for “security”.
Shredding was already a bit overkill for HDDs that were able to be properly wiped but at least there were some possible fringe cases. There’s really no excuse for SSDs though
