Curveball - Wiping out hard drive from Powerbook 170?
#4
It is SCSI. It would take a very talented non-Mac user several hours to figure it out. If the machine still starts up, it might take me 5 minutes to start imaging the drive after I located a HDI-30 to 25 pin cable.

If you have the right Torx drivers, it should not take more than 10 minutes to rip it apart.

The drive is in the right side of the plam rest. If you just want to make it really hard to recover data, just drill through it about 1.5" from the lower and right side.
