I've been physically destroying several old hard drives and prepping a pile of old electronics for recycling. The HDD in this old acer palmtop was too hard to get out. I couldn't even figure it out. So I found this very old software to supposedly wipe it. It's fine, I only ever used this thing to tinker with Arduino anyway.

@Nonya_Bidniss I had one of those, it's a nightmare to get the drive out. Keeb has 3 clips that need basically thin guitar picks before it will pop out, then ~10 screws under that, and all the screws on the bottom of the clamshell, plus the four under the rubber feet, and the top part of the clamshell is also held in by clips (guitar pick around the outside). At least an hour of work.

@ghostsarespooky "under" the rubber feet? Jesus that must have been it. I did all the other stuff.

@Nonya_Bidniss Yep. Turns out I still have this thing, and I've swapped memory and disk on this thing so much the feet no longer stick. Just the rear two, not the four like I had initially mentioned.
