I backup my families PC's onto DVD's every month or so, and keep two versions of the backups for emergencies. In the past I have disposed of the more than two month old backups by breaking the DVD's, but that is not easy or without some danger of flying pieces of disc.
I don't want to spend money on a shredder, so I was curious if just using an exacto knife to score the r/w surface of the DVD would render them consistently unreadable.
Any other suggestions on destroying DVD's would be appreciated.
