Will exercise bike vibrations damage my HDD?
Hello.
If I use my exercise bike in my room and listen to pod casts/radio shows or watch videos from my PC - will the vibrations damage my HDD? |

hi,
definatelly not. my hard drives survived over 1000 earthquakes we had in New Zealand over the last 18 months |

Right, I have dropped them. The platters inside the hard drive are mounted on rubber cushions that will obsorb vibrations, it is very unlikely damage can occur, unless the drive is dropped really hard.

Hi mesak. Thank you. I never thought at how HDD's fair in earthquake prone countries.

Hi Murf. Thanks for the advice. I guess that would be shock more than vibration.
