Disk drive abuse

 

My Seagate FreeAgent Go disk drive has been frozen for 59 days.  It’s getting warmer, so I needed to come up with a new form of abuse. 

I put on my skates and did my worst.

The surface area of my skate blades are .35 square inches each, which means I was applying over 400 pounds per square inch of pressure standing on one foot.  Stomping on the drive was even more abusive.

Can anyone tell me the downward impact of a slapshot?

    Hey Pete,

    When do you plan de-freezing the drive? I can’t wait…. 🙂
