I didn't bother with the hard disks as posting them would probably break
them - any advice here? There used to be a way to 'park heads' on a hard
disk, so it could be transported - can this still be done?


Head automatically park on drives that age, they might
survive if packed in a lot of foam, 2+ inches around all
sides and/or bubble wrap. New drives survive shipping so
older should be ok too unless they were half in the grave
already.
