Old hard drives are not often made from glass.... they are often metal... newer drives, have more of a tendency to be made from glass. I've torn apart 2-3 hard drives from 10-12 years ago... and I have yet to encounter 1 glass drive.
another waste of fuckin time .. i was hoping that when he smashed the platter that one part flew and took out his eye and the second part slicing his throat . well i can hope ... TOSSE.
Actually that's a point. Why, with all our technology, do harddrives not stop instantly, or move the heads off the disk at the slightest hint of contact with the disk surface?
Actually laptop harddrive's pull the head away when the acceromerator senses a drop or when its being turned off. and usually under pc settings, you can set the drive to turn off after a set amount of time.
if you power on the HDD after you opened the cover, it will refuse to work. please cover it and have those screws back.

I have this done as it was spinning.
I have smashed it and the Glas flew everywhere.
I have cut myself everywhere.
And the glass lay everywhere.
That was a bad idea.
But I did not know that it was made out of glas :D

What's the actual benefit of glass platters anyway? They'd likely shatter the moment they were dropped.
