Curious --

I noticed this metal bracket over the platter of the 4TB HDD depicted here.

Anybody know what that's for? :biggrin:

They reduce acoustical noise and smooth out the air flow to help the heads fly better.

Why is Seagate flashing the internals, which nobody but the data recover guy will see?
