You don't know jack about disks

Excellent article. Definitely very interesting. And apparently the author is right in my case: I didn't know jack about disks.

It was a pretty good article. Though, I think they should have gone into more detail about the GMR effect. That's what's really responsible for the large increase in hard drive capacities over the past several years. /end nitpicking
