Ras, I regularly and cheaply reformat them for reuse. They make
wonderful coasters, tops, Christmas ornaments, air hockey pucks, and toy
hovercraft.  (Yes hovercraft --- you need an empty thread spool, and a
balloon. -- glue one end of the spool over the central opening, and
stretch the neck of the inflated balloon over the free end of the spoon
Keeping the air in the balloon by pinching or twisting the neck closed..
Do not over inflate the balloon, however, unless you weight the
hovercraft with a nickel or two.  Put it down on a flat surface and let
go!!)

As for data storage, Phone messages can stored on the disk with a dry
erase pen!

Happy re-use!!
