Superglue helps, anon

Did you just open a hard drive, you stupid fuck? Yeah, I think you may have broken it.
>>58583474
just piece it together and warm it up in the microwave.
u can still get ur data off it
>>58583474
It looks fine to me. Put it back into your computer
>>58583621
Not without a laboratory full of specialized tools and a team of scientists who do data recovery.
>>58583474
you broke it the minute you opened up the drive, retard.

Its impressing how much "tech people" gets their mind blown when you tell'em that there are disk platters made out of glass

>Compacting Files
Ive bent 3.5" HDDs into Tacos without them cracking.
2.5"s break like glass, but 3.5"s?
Is this only possible while they spin?
>>58583642
>>58584854
depends if they're metal or glass
you can get glass platter 3.5" disks
>>58584867
Are they a certain brand that I'm just not seeing?
I literally have hundreds of platters zip-tied together like Christmas garland around my entire workplace...all Metal.
>>58584878
have you tried bending all of them? the glass ones look like metal until they explode into glass shards
>>58584889
No. But now I'm worried...
Ive bent quite a few and I guess I'm just lucky enough to not bend a glass.
Anyway to tell them apart?
>>58584895
i haven't really looked much into it
i suppose there's a chance a bright light could get partially through glass platters
>>58584895
-- oh, and i wouldn't worry about the ones you hung up causing problems, they're pretty strong either way
>>58583621
sure thing man, just get some tape and magnets and you'll be able your waifus back in no time
fucking retard
>>58584834
Well, to be fair only 2.5" drives use glass. 3.5" drives have metal platters inside.
Kinda what happened a friend yesterday.

Oh I forgot, of course *everything* was on there, personal stuff aswell as everything from his own little company, no backups
>>58583474
>>58584975
Well, then it's probably worth 2000€ to him, isn't it ?
Now he knows that data recovery is insanely expensive, maybe he'll have backups next time.
>>58584964
>>>58584975
>>58585144
Maybe the guy now has an incentive to do a backup every now and then.
>>58583582
I used to replace platters at home, not even in a clean environment, to recover data for drives.
Kek.

Knock on them with your nail.
>>58584962
Not true, old 2.5" are metal and many new 3.5" are glass.
