Old Seagate is Clicking

[strekship]

take the disks out and sharpen the edges. I did that with an old 500mb drive.

I even know a guy who had lost clusters on his harddisk. As he shook it, he heard a noise so he thought they were flying around in there somewhere...

Solution?

Open it up, shake it, if nothing falls out clean it with a dry cloth :)

He couldn't assemble it back, so he came to our local hardware store, where we were doing some advanced nerding (yeah yeah :punk: ) I don't have to metion we were literally rofloao. really. it took us ten minutes to get back on our feet... 

NowI come to think of it... he once screwed two graphic cards (those from 3dfx, damn forgot the name, think it were voodoo, the ones you could interconnect one after another) by linking one outport to another outport (don't ask me how). Result? Burn baby burn....

Hey, give the guy a break! I'm pretty sure we have all done something stupid at one time or another. My computer was so dusty one time I decided instead of wiping it down with a cloth, it would be easier to just take it to the carwash. Surprisingly, it didn't work after that. Do you think it may have had something to do with the high presuure washer?

They are?  :blink:

Also, u_diddy, apart from you, i dont think anybody has ever thought about doing that.
