@gredangeo they can't, when you open a hard drive there is absolutely no way to fix it again cuz nothing is supposed to touch the platters not even dust.
@Jerbsinator it is still possible to retreave anything from a hard drive that has a hole drilled through it. I dont know why you people think that that would work.
@robiniroven no no, an HD. The letter H is often preceded by an not a, especially when pronounced as a letter - it is strange but true - think of a newsreader "an historic event". Put it down to the English way, not pronouncing the H at all e.g
" a 'istoric event" wouldn't sound right with a pommy accent now would it.
Seria interesante saber como este genio hace para destruir el otro lado contrario de esa cara sin contar las otras caras. El titulo del video debe ser como destruir un interface IDE en una PC operativa por sobrecorrientes generadas en la fuente por este metodo de destrucción de un HDD.
LONG not destroyed at this way...Specialists still can get the Magnectics out from the Disk and puzle it step by step to see what it was instaled...just wanted 2 say.
i really dont get why people go on about how hard it is to get info off hard drives....just hit it really hard with a hammer or stamp on it until theres only tiny bits left...then put it in an incinerator...then bury the ashes 50ft underground...job done
@dxproductions100 You would need to find a controller board from the same make, model no., date of manufacture etc. you could probably find one on e-bay but I don't think most people would bother with all that hassle just to try to steal some info from a drive.
just take a screwdriver and bend the pins where the cable connects....it the pins are bent no one can use it. I did this one time with an old drive, I was bored at work that day...just for fun.
I can map the drive heads, turn off the top one, and recover the data from the bottom of the platter, and the platters below it. Nice try though! Must have been fun doing that.
the explanation is dust, it can cause errors writing a DVD, and now compare a DVD size/volume to a HDD size/volume, you get a much higher data density and it means the data track must be very thin, of course the HDD is a magnetic drive and not optical like a DVD, but due the data compression the read/write head is so close to the surface of the disk that dust particles will cause read/write errors, i cant tell how soon it will happen exactly, but i wouldn't store any data on this HDD
