Representing some of the hard drives that have failed on me over the years. Shot for an ultra-exciting presentation I making on Thursday night on backup strategies for photographers: photochrome.org/2010/11/27/exploring-photography-backup-s...
The weather is grey and depressing at the moment. We haven't seen any clouds for days there is just one grey mass.The air is so dirty you can't see the other side. A good time to explore one's harddisk. I posted a color version some time ago but I'm really in a B&W mood now. I'm trying to build a bit of a HK B&W set: www.flickr.com/photos/xavibarca/sets/72157622808997061/
I almost bumped into THIS!! It's playing dead, trying to fool ME!! HA!
This photo was taken by G5, the day after I first got it. I lost the original photo because of harddisk failure *sobs*. I downloaded this small version from a photo sharing site.

One of the hard disk drives which was disassembled during the Geeky Bling workshop seemed to have suffered a violent head crash.
Just found these pictures on my harddisk.
It was a lovely day :-)

Long time ago... At this time I just had 3 girls and thought, no other girls will follow! Clueless, naive past me! Here is Nana in her first "bought" fullset made by nosukeman and boots by volks. I found a lot of "old" pictures on my rescued harddisk.
When the f****ng windows crashed with tons of movies in the harddisk, only gnu/linux Knoppix did the job and could start the computer from a liveCD and burn safely in DVD all the movies.
Cuando el j*****do windows se fue a la porra con toneladas de pelis en el disco duro, sólo gnu/linux hizo el trabajo y pude arrancar el ordenador desde un liveCD y quemar con seguridad las pelis en DVDs.
We just 'shredded' 1400 pounds of hard drives because that is a cheaper way of securely disposing of the hard disks that we use. Every 5 years, the computers will be decommissioned (destroyed). Since hard drive data are classified as 'confidental' or above, we need to make sure that they are destroyed. Conventional diskwipe processes are too insecure and costly. Therefore, we feed these into a giant shredder. What comes out of them are small little chunks of metal and plastic - completely unusable! Don't these look like prezels or something like that?

A harddisk of a friend of mine, which has suffered a head crash. The circular pattern on the platter is distinctive, this is the area which has made contact with the head and was badly damaged in the process.
On startup, the drive is trying to locate track 0 on the platter, which has been damaged as well.
Note the metal shavings on the spindle axis.

While my Macbook is being serviced (keyboard repacement, and LCD inverter / LCD screen replacement ... love applecare), I thought that I would build myself a cheap PC to run adobe lightroom (yeah for cross platform compatability).
For the princly price of $601.00, I built myself the following system:
Gigabyte G31-ES2L motherboard ($97.00)
Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 CPU ($200.00)
Kingston PC6400 DDR2 4GB Ram ($75.00)
Western Digital Caviar SE 80Gb SataII HDD ($72.00)
Antec NSK 1380 MicroATX case w/ 350w Power supply ($157.00)
I use an external DVD ROM drive because I'm too cheap to buy one to install the OS. I've still got to get a WIFI card for it, the spare ones I have don't work when the computer has more than 2GB RAM installed (don't ask...)
Took around 1 hr to build, and is running Windows7 ultimate beta. Never seen lightroom run so quick!

In order to free up some clutter I used an Amazon credit to purchase a Twelve South Backpack…nice little solution!

One very dead crashed hard drive. At least it served one last purpose providing a subject for this picture.
PETA (acrónimo de Petada Extra Technology Attachment) es una interfaz de transferencia de datos entre la placa base y dispositivos de almacenamiento de altas prestaciones que están siendo todavÃa desarrollados. PETA sustituye a la tan extendida S-ATA (estándar que también se conoce como Serial ATA). El PETA proporciona mayores velocidades, mejor aprovechamiento cuando hay varios discos, mayor longitud del cable de transmisión de datos y capacidad para conectar discos fácilmente, sin boberÃas, gracias a su simple interfaz de conexión.
After the Hacktivity, the various entries were shown by the participants. Moem was clearly the winner with her "Battle of the Bugs" arena and completely blew away the competition. The defeated opponents were left staring in disbelief, sort of.
Pictured are (top to bottom) 8., Phantagom, CookieMonster and Jaybee.
Jaybee's project, the Nerd Bird Nest Box (a birdhouse made of harddisk parts) and his disposable macro-lens camera can also be seen on the table.
