Remember the days when one would like nothing better than to curl up in front of the fire with a good book and a hot mug of Ovaltine before chasing the young scamps out of the orchard for pilfering the apples???…. No? Oh well.. Apparently that’s what life in the UK used to be like if one is to believe all the old Public Information Films that the government used to make – you know, the ones that were shown on the BBC before Grandstand on a Saturday afternoon, where the boy’s frisbee would end up lodged in an overhead power pylon… so he’d climb up the Dangerous Tower (ignoring all the warning signs) before reaching out to rescue his frisbee.. but he’d inadvertantly touch one of the Bad Dangerous Bits and he’d explode in a shower of sparks…
Well, we’re going to make a Public Information Film of our own, this one is about the different ways in which a hard disk can fail and the associated failure symptoms that go with the failure. This way, as well as reading our riveting goodhard disk drive failures page, you’ll also be able to watch a video too – complete with pictures and noises and everything else!! Gosh! – How good is that !!?? (In the interests of decency however, there won’t be any sordid nakedness in the video…. unfortunately).
