I have a big "hard disk museum." Partly because it's sort of a cool collection going back to old 5 1/4" platter days. But also because, at a minimum, I'd want to give the drives a few whacks with a sledgehammer before I tossed them. I'd also want to at least look through my floppies to make sure there's no "personal info backup" one.

I have two old, broken, hard drives with a piece of paper saying "have you backed up your data today?" on one. I think it was a joke I saw on r/DataHoaders.
