The data would be moving in the opposite direction when the platter is flipped.

Then we would be reading the drive Max-Lba to 0-Lba
Larry is right, it will not work.

You're joking of course.
The bits would be streaming in reverse so nothing would be read. He needs to modify the PCB so the motor spins in the reverse direction, and put the headstack in upside down do the heads fly properly. Hahaha.
