I'm scared to take them apart to find the harddrives as the batteries are very swollen and I'm scared I might burst them. One smoked when it broke.
I want to dispose of these as they are a hazard but I can't take the batteries out because they're glued and swollen. I also want to make sure my data is wiped or destroyed before throwing them.
What should I do in this situation?
