Subject: Hard Drive Speaker Grooving to "The Son of Flynn" Wed Aug 01, 2012 1:21 pm
Yesterday, I undertook a fun project. The project was to convert my web server's old Western Digital 20GB hard drive into a HDD speaker by the end of the day. Long story short, it was a success! I was able to solder some clipped speaker wire to the read/write terminals on the underside of the hard drive's arm. The result? Extremely low-fidelity sound with a dollop of novelty! xD
So, "What's so TRON-y about an HDD speaker?" you ask. To answer that question, I made this video as a little something for all you fellow forum users. Enjoy the treble!
