How a Hard Drive Works – Video

Did you ever wonder how on earth a computer hard drive can deliver so much data so fast using mechanical principles that resemble the old-fashioned record player?

Here’s something a little different. It’s an instructional video about how a computer hard drive actually works. It’s a bit complicated at times – you get to see whats actually inside the shock-proof housing, but it’s absolutely fascinating. The video was created by “Engineer Guy”, Bill Hammack.

If you have a few minutes, Click Here to watch it on YouTube.

In the above video Bill Hammack, the guy behind the Engineer Guy videos, tears down a hard drive. Not only do you get to see what’s going on inside the hard drive but the accompanying graphics and narration give a great introduction to the concept of magnetic hard drives.
