quick, easy, inexpensive way 

It's the old story - pick any two :-(

It also depends on the end purpose. Do the disks need to be re-usede or 
will they be junked?


For re-use - 
IF you can drop the quick - any of the free diskwipe tools mentioned by 
others.
If you can frop the inexpensive - a humungous electro magnet

For "junking"
If you can drop the easy - smash them open with a sledge hammer and 
pulverise the platters.
