[ILUG] [OT] Old Hardware - Environmentally Friendly

Hello All,

I have a bunch of old hard-drives, which are wholly
unusable due to corrosion.

>From a save-the-planet viewpoint - how can these
be disposed of in a *good* way, or is just firing
them into the skip as good as it gets?

ObLinux: Said drives were heavily used in a
home-firewall/server  setup for a loooong time. 
Uptime on the system was enormous. Then the
owner decided the shed would be a good cooled 
environment for the box. :] Oh yeah - he used 
Linux. 

Regards,

Daniel
