The newer platters are much harder as we found out when we tried to cut
some drives up with a metal saw. To hard.
I read an article of using "Coke" (I prefer Pepsi) and drill a few holes
in the top of the case. Fill with Coke and let sit. Soon the surface
of the platters are now etched.
What a waste! Hard disk platters make excellent shaving mirrors. Just
that one has to get used to the small size and the hole in the middle.
I've been using one for the past three years.
