That's theoretical only. Nobody has ever demonstrated that since the theory started and now hdd complexity and density has increased dramatically.

- JohnFen 3y agoI had to check with some experts on this that I know, to make sure that I wasn't talking nonsense. I wasn't, exactly, but I also wasn't correct in the modern day. Retrieving erased information from hard drives like this was certainly a thing (a thing that I myself have seen done, so I know first-hand). However, after hard drives moved beyond MFM it stopped really being possible. So what I was saying isn't wrong, exactly, but certainly isn't relevant to today's hardware.
