I was thinking back on this the other day and I remembered my iPod Classic with the 1.8" HDD in it. Boggles the mind how that thing didn't just immediately die. The number of 2.5" drives I've lost in laptops and external drives over the years...
- mypalmike 4y agoIIRC, the 1.8 inch drives were designed to take a beating. I think they had circuitry that would actively protect the platters from the drive heads when jostled(?)
