You douse it in carbolic acid, light it on fire, and then call for a
hazardous waste pickup. Then you buy a fresh hdd that's ten times as big
and costs half as much as the old one did, and more importantly, is not
irrevocably tainted by having come in contact with the execrable Windows ME.

Alternatively, you can give it to your roommate, mail it to Dubya, Mr.
Gates, Mr. bin Laden, or some other deserving soul as a sick and twisted
joke -- just be sure you are not within about 100km of the fallout zone
when the **** hits the fan. You might also try removing the taint with a
format command, but the disk is still likely to eat your files, make
your girlfriend not want to have sex anymore, attract sickos to the
area, develop bad sectors, or explode with the force of a small nuclear
weapon.

so I assume from all of that to just format the drive ?
