How hard drives work.
It's the engineer guy, I truly "less than 3" him. A complex idea explained in a straight forward manner.

Thank you for posting!
I loved his LCD monitor break down which got posted here a while back and would encourage anyone else who hasn't seen it yet to do so!
Gets a big fat click from me!

Yeah,
I'd highly recommend anyone to check out his other videos, highly informative and interesting at the same time.
Thanks for the big click, it was most satisfactory.

I like the info bar pice which asks...
'Would you like to translate the captions?'
Yes, please, English would be good for me as I've got no technical savvy at all.
Very fine video though, thanx.

This is a pretty good video
However I am disappointed in his explanation he gives of the read head. Read heads haven't consisted of coils of wire for some time as they suffer from issues such as a low signal to noise ratio and different response magnitudes depending on where the head is radially on the disk. Most hard drives now use some form of spin valve which does not rely on Faradays law of induction.

Then again he did say it consisted of a coil of wire "at its simplest" so I'll let him off.
