Magnetic Hard Disk: Learn Theory & Current Tech

Click For Summary
To learn about the theory and current technology of magnetic hard disks, several resources are recommended, including books and websites. A specific suggestion is the HowStuffWorks article on hard disks, which provides a foundational understanding. There is a debate about the relevance of spintronics to hard disk technology, with some asserting it is unrelated. The discussion emphasizes the importance of using reliable sources for accurate information. Overall, exploring dedicated resources can enhance knowledge of magnetic hard disk technology.

Why not Google? It took less than 10 seconds to get

And, by the way, "spintronic" has NOTHING to do with HDs.
 

Thread 'What mathematics software should engineering students use?'

What mathematics software should engineering students use? Is it correct that much of the engineering industry relies on MATLAB, making it the tool many graduates will encounter in professional settings? How does SageMath compare? It is a free package that supports both numerical and symbolic computation and can be installed on various platforms. Could it become more widely used because it is freely available? I am an academic who has taught engineering mathematics, and taught the...
