I've noticed a large influx of damaged hard drives. Just an update to help save you some coin: Keep your laptops away from excessive vibrations, keep it away from cell phones - at least 2 feet, old cathode ray tube televisions, and speakers larger than 2 inches in diameter. Do not drop your laptop, if it's an older laptop, try not to move it abruptly while the hard drive is spinning, be gentle.
