Hard Drive Destruction is the safest method of removing your data. This may seem a little drastic, but any other method might leave you wondering if a criminal can still get his hands on your data.
For businesses that store information abot customers including names, credit cards, locations and more, you want to be 100% sure that no one can ever retrieve your information
Computers with full hard drives have been sold online and other people have been able to get their hands on sensitive data, but even more alarming is the ability of theives to read data after it has been wiped. A criminal with the right technology can recover data even after you hit delete and then degauss or wipe the drive.
If a company is found to have been neglegent and data was retrieved because of it, then that business will pay a hefty fine. Please see the article linked here about data destruction.
This link concludes that for individuals it is smart to destroy drives. As such, businesses that hold much more information about lots more individuals, destruction is very important.
