Conner Peripherals CFS425A 425MB (1995) - Hard Drive Sounds

The CFS425A was released in 1994, featuring a single platter & two heads. This particular drive has about 10 bad sectors right in the middle of it, but works quite well aside from that.

As usual, I went into more detail about this drive on my site post, which you can find here (with pictures): [TBD!]

Thanks for checking out the video.
