  • I love your work

  • They killed hard drive D:

  • Lol you should do a video about bulletproof hard drives.

  • yeaa i dont think that the 2 1/2 inch drive will work very well considering the water POURING OUT OF IT...lol

  • Except with flash (USB) you have limited space so you can't back up your entire rig

  • hmmm did you even bother to try another enclosure with the same drive water can easily shor componets

    if it spun up at all its a miracle after chucking it up against a cement wall and ladding on a paved surface

  • What is the technical name for your job?

  • Lol i recon you should do this tests with some old graphic cards, use the nvidia gt 8800 and put it againts the amd radeon equivilent

    Please do this linus :D

  • LOL!!

  • Is it possible that the hard drive enclosur is damaged but the drive itself is still fine?And he can pull the harddrive itself out and put in a new enclousur and still recover the data.

  • ever considered dropping the HDD while on?\

    they are more fragile in that state

  • Comment removed

  • Try the Ironkey titanium flash drives. They say it's military grade

  • GTR looked amazing!

  • I think its the water that killed the external harddrive.

  • What the hell??

    Nice beamer and what's with that GT-R? LOL!

    PHOTOSHOP!!! j/k

  • and a CLS (non AMG)

  • Nissan gtr at 3:34

  • brandonlacavera = DUMDUM

  • is there a nissan GT-R in the back at 3:37? *haha* those guys earn a lil to much ;)

  • comon people

    is it fair to compare external hard drives vs flash disks

    mechanical vs technical

  • No, but that's the point. Flash > HDD for hard drives :p

  • is it detected in dsl or ubuntu though?

  • When he said family memories about that sunset picture that comes with xp, i laughed pretty hard! this guy is great!

  • Note the GT-R in the background at 3:35.

  • its probaly his...?!

  • Comment removed

  • I really want to see more from these guys, they are the best reviewers!

  • what mic are you wearing on your shirt? that info comes in handy

  • i would like to see corsair survivor flash drive vs generic flash drive. All geeks know original hdd wont work if you drop it hard like you did. I wonder you are even a "geek" !? lol

  • Yea, Its pretty obvious that throwing any form of HDD at a wall and dropping to concrete its screwed. I would have liked to see what it would be like if they checked the drives between each test. Even though the HDD was screwed after the first one.

  • damn i was gonna buy a external hard drive, but since i often enjoying throwing it against walls i best not :(

  • Is this a skyline at 3:35? :O

  • Its look like Nissan GTR

  • I don't see a Skyline at 3:35, I only see the Nissan GT-R, which, unlike its predecessors, is not a Skyline.

    The conclusion of this show is, well, quite predictable!

  • it's all the same R32, R33, R34, R35... you know what i mean

  • Yes... you are correct... that is in fact NOT a Skyline. ;)

  • nice is that the nismo one? btw i like my cars /dont knoe a lot bout them :)

  • ordered a 16gb here in Uk off amazon for 40£ ;D

    used to have the pretec unbrakable(2gb) but it so battered and its starting to go bezerk and it looses data so i figured out it was time for a change ;)

  • Haha - Awesome episode :]

  • Yes i work here.. I park beside it everyday.. its deff a GT-R and you can have it for only $105,000 lol..

  • Holy shit, there's not many of those gtrs in bc! I have seen like 2 down in vancity like 2 times. I'm guessing that's one of them!

  • is that a GTR in the back???3:35?

  • Yep that's a GTR 35.

  • hahah i noticed that too

  • lol nice bmw camera man

  • nice gtr at the back! 3:35

  • well...whats the connection between this product and this stupid tests!?!?!?

  • test to destruction, the best phrase in the english language

  • How do you make the video look like that? Lol, can you teach me? I've been trying to figure out how to do that for the longest time.

  • Video look like what? =\

  • Confusion at 4:48 :O

  • omg lmao!!!!!

  • 3.36 nice gt-r mate :)!!!

  • damn you beat me to it...

  • That was better than i expected. I liked the video :)

  • i've had that happen to a customers laptop drive This was with a external case plugged into my desktop running windows 7 .. I ran some data recovery software and got all the data back ... the hard drive was corupt ... then formated the drive and it worked fine... it might not be as damaged as you think it is

  • "actually 30 minutes later" lmao

  • WTF GTR IN CAR PARK

  • boy linus, your s&m tendencies came out during the tests. wow, those tests were harsh. keep up the good work since i'm a faithful subscriber.

  • The drive itself my not be dead, the USB enclosure could be the part thats damaged.

    Test isn't complete until they test it

    in a new enclosure.

  • Agreed! Although I'd be impressed with the drive if it still worked!

  • awesome video, lol ur tests were awesome. I think the generic one wonouldnt have died if u didnt put it in water

  • 3:35 any1 notice the GTR? Is that his? LOL

  • i did actually ;)

    but man, even the cameraman has a BMW.

  • No, he drives a civic.

  • thats bmw

  • the bmw belongs to the cameraman... Linus drives a civic.....and as for the gtr...who knows.

  • wtb more destruction tests!!!

  • Damm that USB drive is BEAST.

  • Hah. That hdd was done the second it hit the wall.
