How to securely, physically destroy a hard drive at home?
Hard drive in question has sensitive unencrypted data but has failed and no longer responds so can't be wiped.
I'd like to physically destroy the said hard drive (3-1/2" desktop, spinning platter drive) before discarding it. What "home remedies" are good options?
We're not talking about corporate data, national security data or personal banking data. Encrypted backups mostly, with some unencrypted personally identifiable information when the said drive was used to migrate data.
