DBAN is a very old and reliable tool for data destruction. Been using it for years with confidence. The FBI/CIA use something similar, but this ones open source. It's very through, but by no means fast.

If you want somewhat fast and through, use an angle grinder on the platters.

If you want super duper fast use thermite. Place some in your PC above the HD with an electrical ignition system you can flip on in case of emergencies. THIS WILL BURN THE PLACE DOWN! Don't advice using this method but thought it's worth sharing.

Get a screwdriver and a hammer. Hammer the screwdriver through the aluminum side into the platter. Will either crack or seriously bend the paltters rendering them umrecoverble. Trust me, worked forensics for about 5 years. Shit is toast. Takes all of 10-20 seconds.

first you wipe it completely, then you fill it to the brink with useless data. then you wipe it clean again. after that you try to destroy the partitioning table so it is completely fucked from a technical standpoint.

after that you would probably wanna smash it, then burn it and throw the remaining parts in 2 different lakes.

but obviously that is way over the top and unless you have nuclear launch codes or cp on it it is overkill.

if you didnt encrypt it beforehand then just wipe it, fill it completely with useless data and wipe again.

a good way to fuck it up further is unironically to install arch linux and dual boot it with windows on the same drive. if you install a custom bootloader and fuck up the harddrive is absolutely fucked and wont be recognized even by the BIOS anymore.

after that smash, burn or whatever and throw it in a lake.

Nope. The NAND chips inside SSD drives are made out of an indestructible mimetic poly alloy created by DARPA. Even if you manage to break it down to a molecular level, it will reasemble itself within 6.45 nanoseconds. Even if you bury it, launch it into space, its automatic homing system will lock onto the latest device it was plugged into.

You dont need to destroy a hard drive. You just run a Gutman pass on it and be done with it. That goes for both harddrives and solid state drives.

If you are still worried about the hard drive, take it apart and take sand paper to every disk.

SSDs do not save residual data so when you delete something its gone forever. That is actually delete something by running a low level format that writes 0s to every sector.
