A hammer is more fun though .

A hammer is definitely more fun I destoyed a laptop a few weeks ago for the fun of it!
Seriously though. Take a huge sledgehammer, stick the hard drive in a clamp or something, and practice baseball.

All of the above work, but I've gotta say, the hammer is great fun xD I have destroyed many a PC with that good old sledge hammer xD

Download Kali Linux Forensic Suite and there should be an option in there to permanently erase your HDD. OR you could just use a magnet. Like a super Magnet.
