But I've also used them for target practice. I'm personally not worried about the government trying to recover the data on the drives. And I'm not worried about normal criminals trying to recover data because the cost involved would most likely be higher than the value of the data gained.
Drilling/shooting, totally fine in my opinion.
Shooting gives you a little stress relief too!

RE: Is There No Base of IT Knowledge?
I think what leads to roles being all over the place is IT people usually are very good at troubleshooting so they can go up to a problem with little prior knowledge and figure out what and how it is supposed to work and what could be causing it not to. Along with that (at least from personal experience) we don't have a fear of breaking stuff further, so we're inclined to dig into it further to find the issue.
Also, IT people tend to learn things by themselves very well and are always learning something new. At my job, I hear people talking about an issue that isn't necessarily an IT issue, but I always end up helping out which leads me to do things that would fall out of my normal job description.

And wasn't he considering moving to a QNAP as some sort of "solution?" He stated enterprise in the title and then went for every possible way to be as far from enterprise as you could imagine.
Yea, it had all kinds of bad written all over it.
