I don’t understand how you accidentally throw a drive away. I have a drawer full of old hard drives that I put in there because at some point I’m going to wipe the data off of them before disposing of them but then I never do and I just leave them in the drawer.

I don’t even think it would be legal for me to just throw it in general waste I’d have to take it to the actual depot.
