I have some old pcs that I’m going to donate. What’s the safest way to erase the hard drives so none of my data is on there?

I have a ton of old hard drives but afraid to get rid of them for security concerns. I always thought just getting a 3/8” drill bit and drilling through each would suffice. Quick and easy, no? I can’t believe data can be pulled from platters with holes in them. Or heck, open them up and smash the platters.
