Data recovery and disk repair questions and discussions related to old-fashioned SATA, SAS, SCSI, IDE, MFM hard drives - any type of storage device that has moving parts

Hi all -
Just after some opinions - just been reading review on the new Seagate 7200.11 1.5TB drive which boasts 375GB platters -
Surely there is a limit where operations such as head stack and platter swaps are going to become unachievable due to tolerences inside the chamber.
Anyone seeing the new high capacity drives coming in yet?
=Whats your opinion??

As long as your techniques are good then you should have no problems. When moving from the small drives to the larger 1Tb drives our techniques were used as normal and all proved OK.
The situation is that doing physical work with a drive is mostly marred by mental power. If you think it is going to fail, it probably will.
Realising that the parts do all the work and tolerence deficiencies are covered by using compatible parts is the main hurdle covered.
And if in doubt. Practice, practice, practice.
