High Quality Harddrive Speakers Proof! [Blank & Jones - Sound of machines (RhythmusRaum dub mix)]

I've had a lot of comments saying that my hard drive speakers I built 3 years ago were fake. Recently I have been receiving more comments than usual so I figured I'd take out the speakers after 3 years and give some proof that they still are not fake!

At the beginning of the movie, the hard drives are set as to how almost all other builders do, and of course they do not sound very clear at all with lots of unwanted noise. (Mine were said to be fake because they did not have this!)

3 Years ago when making the movies I spend a week of fine-tuning, here I only do it for a couple of seconds, and at the end of the movie, they sound almost as good as they did 3 years ago!

If you still claim these hard drive speakers are fake, then you obviously have not tried it! (Or you failed, but that does not mean it's fake!).

What part of the HDD produces the sound? I'm not entirely sure.

[FurreFurre]

@raconmario Hello. The same parts that produces the sound is the same parts that does it in the speaker; The magnet and the coil. The magnet is located in the hard disc casing, and the coil, where we connect the current from the amplifier, is located at the end of the "reading arm".

@FurreFurre I'm guessing you can't get the disc to spin aswell as play the music?

[FurreFurre]

@PyreManiacz

It is possible, but why do you want the disc to spin?

The only thing that will add is a lot of noise.

[Vaughnlesterinoz]

@FurreFurre Oh, it adds more noise? I thought that it would decrease some of the noise, because the heads on the arm make direct contact with the platters until they are spinning. The reason for this is so that the heads can get close enough for accurate reads and purely rely on the surface tension to draw air underneath the heads to lift them off the right amount. So I would have imagined it would make the sound a bit clearer, but it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong about something

[FurreFurre]

@Vaughnlesterinoz It adds noise due to the spinning of the metal discs. Just power up a HD and you'll hear the noise of the discs spinning, and with the cover removed when you have it as a speaker, the noise is even more loud.

Awesome. Gotta do this now. I found how to make it and now I know how to increase quality



[raconmario]

@FurreFurre Thanks. That gave me a few ideas.

[PyreManiacz]

@FurreFurre Put ridges into the disc and have a laser pointed at it idk ;D Make it alittle more fun.

@nickshoes Because sound is vibration. The arm moves so fast it is now called vibrating instead of moving, and that planned vibration is making the noise. if it moves, it's too loose.
