So, I know to seperate all of the 'Hard drive boards' from the 'CD ROM boards' into seperate boxes.

But, should I sperate all of the 'Hard drive boards' into 'Identical Hard Drive boards' and put them in plastic bags and then put all of those bags into the same box, labeled "Hard drive boards - seperated by shape" ?
(shape - model - sort - production run..??)

I get the impression they can find out exactly the amount of Gold/precious metals in each production run.
And if they seperate all of the production runs, they can then tell exactly how much Gold they are going to get out of them.
By doing this they do not 'over reclaim' their extraction of Gold from each run.

So, 1, Just seperate all the 'Hard drive boards' into one box. All mixed up.

2. Seperate all of the 'Hard drive boards' into seperate catagorys based on shape, and put all of the hard drive board catagorys into their own box labeled 'Hard drive boards' as before.

1. ALL hard drive boards together. Mother boards can be separated by different types. I put very similar boards together.

The REAL answer is as always its entirely up to YOUR buyer. Mike
