They look so normal in 2020
Definitely
The world is a clean-room
Agree
I just realized it wasn't
Yes
Definitely
Just so common 🤣
I need a room like that to apply my phone's screen protector
haha i bet they do that all the time for them self =P
I had the same problem fitting my PSP screen protector. It was basically impossible not to get some dust / fbers under it. Very annoying
Go to the bathroom run the shower on the hottest possible, close the door, wait 5 minutes, turn off the shower, let the steam take the dust down and them apply your protector =]
Well, if you live in northern sweden, where it's -30 degrees, thats a considerable amount of money spent on hot water ^^
skarskar skarner I live in Brazil haha so that’s not expensive at all haha

@@JP-vi9mw HAd they actually done that while he was up at the bench, sure.
3000 operations before you actually get to do productive work… That is some awesome dedication to in-house training there, for a workplace. It’s not like you can practice those somewhere else.
50 per 8 hour day. That would be 60 days. Actualy not much even if you do 25 per day. I mean it is much but not excessive in my opinion, (eventough I know nothing about this business)
hi bisqwit
@@timburkhadt 60 days without any benefit to the company? Thats pretty long. How many jobs are like that?
@@timburkhadt
I bet 50 per day is pushing it. Thats just a little over 6 an hour. Thats if you don't take lunch or breaks. Ill bet its a 6 month training period.

YOU HAVE A POINT
This was such a cool video. Brb, opening up my broken 3TB drive. No worries, got the AC going, so I've pretty much got a clean room going on.
I actually have 2 drives that I open up to let people see how it works in real time. So far no head crashes and I can read and write to it. =-)
R.I.P., David Summers' 3tb drive.
Gabe Hernaez as long as you do it in a semi clean are your risk is small. The only reason they use a clean room is because the mass usage would destroy aloy and recovering vs opening and closing
David Summers "No worries, got the AC going, so I've pretty much got a clean room going on" - Keep dreaming...

He would somehow jank it into working and then in the end he would drop it anyway.
OOPSIE!

hahaha nice one
linus pulled up his mask about 8128 times to cover his nose
As someone who has worn masks a shit ton, the secret is pulling one of the straps (on the back of your head) higher up where the crown of your skull is, and the other strap at the bottom where your neck and head meet.

Can't deny the man for being honest, I think 65 was the generosity of itself. He's a kinder, gentler hero for today's fumblers and misfits, or wishful run their mouths that might actually become successful.

behind the scene: Linus takes 13 hour long shower, uses 4 bottles of shampoo so he is clean enough to enter the clean room.
NavalNation if it was Taran there wouldn't be enough shower in the world.

Next up: Linus visits a micro soldering facility xD.
Would be nice to learn was is going on inside a fab.
actually , he did, it is not micro soldering but it was fixing GPU using micro soldering machine
The slow mo guys did a video about how high speed cameras are made and it has a part in it where they show how the motherboeard of the camera is soldered
The guy was more concerned about the chair crashing in some expensive stuff than Linus falling on the floor 😂
Xemerius Sieben understandable
his mask kept falling off his face when he was trying to tell us interesting things it made it unbearable to watch XD. no hate to i love linus tech tips
asses heal, drives don't.
I could feel the air conditioning through my screen
lol i love it when your face mask keeps on falling down
Did anyone else spit out their actuators when Linus said you shouldnt eat HDD parts?
Correct.
no they're too addictive :(
Yea
Wasn't that funny.
Way to ruin the mood, bro.
"Whatever the bossman says" I like this guy.
the recovery software they're using reminds me of the built in setup from my family's first computer. IBM Aptiva running Win95, after about 8 years of use, the drive started failing. any time we turned on the pc, it would try to go into a data recovery mode, where it analyzed each block of data to see if it had good or bad sectors. every time we ran it, we'd get more and more bad sectors. thankfully by that time we had 2 computers, to which i more or less commandeered the other for myself
It is pretty cool to see some of the things they do for recovery. Had to send in a few disks for clients because they were past what I could do.
'Trusting Linus to hold anything fragile.'
Linus : I didn’t drop it
We don't appreciate the engineering marvel that are hard disks
Hard disks are an engineering marvel, but SSDs, CPUs, and Graphics cards are meh?
Sorry, they are not an engineering marvel, not anymore at least. They use more or less the same technology they've been using for decades now.
Its just improvements and optimizations of the same engineering design.
Marvel or not, it has to go. Make way for NAND flash. Its superior in every way. And there's still tons of room for improvement.
Morpheas You do realize that HDDs will probably be around for decades yet for mass data storage, until the price per gigabyte for an SSD surpasses that of an HDD.
I work in a wafer fab that manufacturs heads that read and write on hdds and its amazing to me the amount of steps and time it takes to make that little piece.
ssds dont last forever i had two ssds fail on me the same year
I don't agree, a hard drive magnetic plate can hold information much longer than an SSD flash nand architecture, if the heads fail, it's recoverable, however, an SSD is much harder to recover, and it's usually used as caché between RAM and magnetic disks on server rooms (based on locality principle), truly permanent data is stored in magnetic drives, because of capacity and easier recovery of damaged hardware. Aaand, SSD tend to fail more than usual hard drives, and that's because of limited R/W accesses of the nand flash memory; that could mean nothing on a desktop computers, but in cluster rooms can mean true hell.
3:23 my hdd rattling sound, when its come to this stage im ready to say goodbye to my data
Both these videos were awesome. That place is super interesting
Because some people don't get just HOW fucking precise these read and write heads operate, I wanna give you a metaphor to better understand how insane this technology actually is.
These "flying height" as it is typically called in the tech industry is roughly 10nm above the surface of the drive, that is 0,00001mm or about the width of 100 hydrogen atoms. 100 atoms above the platter at a speed of 7200rpm which, for a 3,5" drive, is about 70km/h. This is so close and fast that even a dust particle or a finger print on the platter would have enough height to touch the head and cause a head crash.
Now Linus was actually a bit off with his fly and hurricane comparison, in fact it's MUCH more difficult and MUCH more precise.
You can compare what a hard drive actually accomplishes to a pilot that flies a Boeing 747 full of passengers around the equator with about 1500km/h just 2 inches above a lawn and while doing that he doesn't even touch a single blade of grass in over 500 rounds.
This is why QLC NAND (4 bits per cell) is going to be such a huge change in the industry. Although, because of scale and current maching, HDDs with various tech like HMR, are going to do well for a while longer. QLC NAND brings down price per TB considerably and sizing for density. For example, Samsung's M.3 sticks (slightly wider than M.2) are going to be 16TB QLC NAND. You can but one Petabyte easily in a 1U rack chassis. This'll be good for consumers like us too for bulk storage.
Good grief.
The technology that goes into something as simple as a hard drive is incredible.
Think of what we'll have in 10 years, let alone 50.
Wow, super neat info.
Ram blows me away(think how freeking fast it is)
But that’s super interesting to think about
Atomic levels of accuracy at such speeds.
Surgeon Simulator: Hard Drive Edition... :D
Felixeur, that would actually be a pretty fun game xD
I would buy it
Step 1: open the hard drive case. With what, though? A garden trowel? A reciprocating saw? A hammer? A plastic spoon?
I remember having a Quantum fireball hard drive back in 1998, I think and it was only 6.4 GB. These drives didn't have platter parking ramps like those of today, the heads just stayed on the disks. These ramps are a good idea.
Linus knew what was ahead off time 0:22
As someone that did data recovery for a bit. This place is much better than the place I worked. -_- The place claimed to be one of the most advanced data recovery places in the world, but they trained me inside a regular office space (not clean room), and only had me work on around 10 drives before having me start working on customer drives.
They also didn't have head combs for us here in the US. Instead, we were given pieces of paper to fold over and over again to make it the right distance for the heads instead of the combs shown here (people in the UK had combs), and if we did a platter swap, was just normal address labels sticky side to the side of the platters, lift and hope it didn't fall apart. Not all places are equal.
Sounds like Louis Rossman's operation :D
Except they have head combs. And they perform the work inside a negative pressure chamber of sorts to keep particles off the platter. And they sure as hell don't claim to be world leaders in data extraction.
Correct
Linus got me laughing so many times. Especially when his chair went rolling. I couldn’t help but burst out in laughter AHAHAHA
I love the whole setup as well as know pc cases on the computer !!!!!

8:17 how much does it cost to train a new employee if they have to mock 3000 repairs before doing a real one?
maximum there might be a failure of change for 10 drives, but the person might get the hang of it after so he wouldn't really mess up the rest.
also they won't hire him even if he broke like 2 of their drives cuz if not that dude there might be many who are better and not even mess up even one of the 3000 they are gonna do.
