Hilarious Seagate Article

You gotta see this article: http://www.extremetech.com/computing/12 ... -their-way

Pay special attention to the first picture. I think it gives a more accurate description of where their technology is going than the article does.

lol, that article has a nice "ring" to it

The true about the ring....

New technology of writing data: deeper into the platter eheheh

 

[HaQue]

I think they are just scratching the surface with showing their technological skill!

But yes, they are pretty Groovy!

I don't know. I don't see a ramp. Are you sure it's not some special landing zone? The article is from 2012, BTW.

No it's definitely scratched. If you look closely you can see the actual slider is bent out to the right.

 

[LarrySabo]

Yeah, I saw that but assumed the drive was a prototype and the "tab" played some part. Looking closer, I think I see the slider at the end of the HGA, without any support, which is probably what's bent out of place. How's that even possible? That's what happens when the PR people know nothing about hard drives. They made a poor choice of picture to grab from their stock photos, I guess.
