    About the only thing in escrap not worth pulling apart is the motors in cd/dvd drives. Just yank the board, rest shred. Other is hard drives. Not worth the time. Throw them on Ebay and make a 1.25 lb and they pay shipping lol... Although save and test the large capacity drives and sell them as good working lots.



    Everything else is gutted....

    I just wedge a flat head screw driver in the side of them and pry it. Takes half a second.
