I am clearing up the 'office' and I have a number of small hard drives, 1, 2 gig, I cant see anything of importance on them, I know that I can format them, but is there a 'free' disk shredder that is any good?

Mortar chisel and lump hammer does the job. Unless you want to recycle/reuse them.

There are free downloadable linux disks with disk wiping utilities. They write random data multiple times over the entire disk. No chance of recovery then:thumb:
