That would be it. You think about this tho. A hard drive has two |
| 16 |
things going against it. Electronic failure or mechanical failure. |

Mechanical usually happen with age, USUALLY. Electronics mostly fail at |
| 18 |

| 19 |
course. So if one doesn't get it at the beginning, the other gets it in |
