Nice Links #1 -- How hardrives works and how they do recovery

I start a new series: Nice Links: Links I came around and I want to keep / share.

Today: Harddisks low level functionality explained, some types of errors and some approach to repair. (Interesting, but don't try this at home.)

This also reminded me to do backups ;-)
