Hey all, I finished a build recently, upgraded from a ca. 2008 build.
What does one do with old HDD? I have this IDE Maxtor. Recycle? Rip apart for magnets?
store data????
what else are you expecting? hipster yard art suggestions?
ide where u plug that???

>320GB
Just use it in your seedbox ore somewhere else where it doesn't matter that it will wear out
Why would you destroy a perfectly working HDD? Are you some kind of retarded hipster?
>>55478770
Get an adapter you underaged retard

When I was in HS, I sold one to this guy for two bucks and he had fun chucking the platters around.

It's dead. Why wouldn't you dispose of dead things.
>>55478734
store 320 GB of pr0n on it and cum on it

Are you OP?
>>55478823
Yes
Softmod an original Xbox, if the drive is compatible.

Then I suggest destroying the platters, as they still contain all the data

I'd rip the magnets out. Those are always useful.
You could get an adapter and use it, but I wouldn't store anything I actually needed on an 8 year old harddrive.

>a rebadged seagate
Why did they even bother?
put it in the fridge

Shoddy drives that will fail on their own do it quickly

Gift it to some homeless man.

I got the drive in 2006. And yeah it's no longer working.
Magnets could be fun/useful.
This.

My hard drive is 12 years old and still going. It is just a backup drive though so I'm only losing out if my main drive goes as well.
