Is there anyway to erase my hard drive on my old broken mbp? (fried logic board) I want to sell the whole unit, but feel that the only thing i could do is take out the hard drive and sell everything else. Id prefer to not have to dismantle my mbp as it is somewhat time consuming. Is there a way to erase it within the mac?

Thanks
 
isnt a fried logic board as good as a dead mbp? how does one use a dead mbp?

just disassemble it and reformat it...use a hd enclosure if needed be 😛
 
get external enclosure from bestbuy or something
put hard drive in it and format
sell the mbp and return enclosure to the store
????
PROFIT
