I found a very cool page about a experiment that was done on testing G-forces in highspeed cd drives!... when the cd rom drive is spinning at 64x it goes up to 24000 rpm! Can the disc take it? Nope...
http://www.paintbug.com/cdexplode/ So will cd-drives now come with protective goggles? [img]smile.gif[/img] |
