Except old hard disks really did use iron oxide as the magnetic storage material. Semiconductors were never made from glass.

- Junk_Collector 7y agoOxygen doped silicon isn't necessarily the same thing as glass but it's not entirely far off either and has been used in semi-conductors. Actual Glass layers are also a major component in transistor and IC design, so I don't feel like this is any more stretched than the rust comment.
