Getting OT , but prompted by the title ... (and by the fact I am just
dismantling an old HDD :) ... now that disks are shiny presumably they
aren't 'spinning rust' any more!
I do recall the old swappable disk platters the size of posh restaurant
dinner plates, which were that characteristic brown ferrous oxide (on an
aluminium substrate IIRC) ... but these modern things the size of posh cafe
saucers (to continue an analogy) are evidently something else (which does
not appear strongly magnetic).
I know, I could probably go and look up the answers. Just an observation
really.
