There is an easier way to destroy all date on a hard drive.
Put the drive into the freezer for a while and power it up.

hit the disc's surface making all data unrecoverable.
I know it works, I've tried it!

Ian,
I once heard that the FBI dealt with their HD's by removing
them, drilling
them with a number of well positioned holes, and then
pumping them with
super glue.
Not sure how that would help you, but the problem with
confidential
information on HD's is very real
