I want to know if 3620rpm on the first one is the rotation speed of the outer cylinder or the inner cylinder or an avergae or something. Because if it's the outer cylinder, that's one slow hard drive.

hummmm.....
That0s really frustating.... we keep complaining because of the space.. the capacity... and people (not too many years ago) adapted themselves to suing those monstrous thing without complains... doing the best with what they had.... WHY ARE WE SO HARD TO PLEASE!!! |

It's not just that they are from china, It's the thing that you in 1980's could never buy one. They were sooo expencive then...

Nice find man... that's amazing. Look how far we've come in 20 odd years. Could you imagine trying to install one of them babies in your PC? Hehehe, you would need a crane. And back then they probably would never have imagined having the hard drive capacity we have these days in such a small size.
