yes, I seen, but for me it's only for alumminium recovery. Why you can buy it?
Hard drive refurb.
For damaged drives with for example damaged head(s) i can disable head(s) and re-sell drive with lower capacity.
If drive have bad sectoers i can remap them to factory defect list and re-sell drive.
If drive have bad head(s) and / or pre-amp i can re-use PCB (sell it on eBay for data recovery as people might need a specific PCB). Ican offer adaptation service as well (move ROM from older PCB to newer one).
Also i can use HDDs for research firmware -
http://www.hddoracle.com/viewforum.php?f=59Example - I can buy a 1TB HDD with one damaged head and disable it and i will get a 750 GB drive that i can still re-sell for more than 1€ / 50 cents that i'm offering for the damaged drive !!!
