I always take apart old dead disks to retrieve the magnets, allowing
me to kill time by building things like this:

(an iFixit tool kit comes in handy for the weird screws on disk drives).
They are very useful magnets. I keep a couple on the column of the my drill
press to hold drill bits (the same drill press I use to make holes in drives
being discarded) and others to hold tuna cans for parts while working on
bikes.
