Unless that hard drive was barely even damaged, there is no way they recovered a shredded drive. Sounds like BS, to me. They would have to somehow figure out how it goes back together, reconnect the pieces (how, welding? lol), and then use it like a normal HD to try to recover data. No, I dont see that happening.
Either way, scrape all that nice, magnetic materiel off with a screwdriver and you're golden.

Once the drive has been shredded or scratched up that's it. I call BS Now a head crashed hard drive or one in a fire for a lot of money they can TRY to recover data off it.
