  • Stop exposing services like these to the Internet. If you need remote access, use a VPN.

    You don’t need to own a domain either. Use a free dynamic DNS provider.

    And if you don’t need remote access, don’t bother with that at all. Just run a local DNS server with records for these services with anything under the .internal TLD. Or even just IP address.

    HTTPS can come later. It’s really not important for traffic that’s not sensitive, like no passwords or whatever.

    Some other comments mention shattering platters, but that’s only true for what are typically laptop drives. Most full-size drives are full metal and bend and break into a few large pieces, not really shatter like glass.

    Anything that will physically disable them will work. They make bending jigs, but you could also just use a sledgehammer, or prop them up at an angle and drive over them. Drill a few holes, at least one through the head assembly. Or take them to the range and put some bullet holes in them. They definitely won’t spin up after that.
