    You should ask them again. Most companies just fear the ways the storage drive could be restored. Maybe they gave them away without the storage.

    A couple of years ago we gave old core2duo out for free. I prepared them with dd’ing only /dev/zero over the storage. Should be enough, but replacing would be better.

      lol, I wish. Luckily I have plenty of computing power at home already! But unfortunately we’re definitely not allowed to take anything - have asked a number of times :/ has nothing to do with storage and everything to do with capital BS
