<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> The manufacturers often cheats a lot and place pieces of heavy metal in the motherdisc.
This is done to make the motherdisc heavier and make the consumer to think that the motherdisc is bigger than it actually is. A 2 gigabyte motherdisc can contain almost 100 grams of extra weight, and fools you to think it's a 100 gb motherdisc. Remove as much as possible, and throw it away. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>


LMAO.. ohh those silly Swedes

YEAH IT WORKED!!!!!

Before doing that myself, I have to ask for a question:
About the original data stored in it. Will them loss if I put my disk on a car speaker?
If they do, I think a hardware defragmentation is not necessary.
