Back in the day, I’d go through HDDs faster than systems-always needed to add storage before I could replace the CPU. I didn’t start disassembling them until they got up to the 500 _M_B range, but you’d often get 3 platters back then. OP must be harvesting from a whole workgroup - I’ve only got a 3cm stack and 7 drives waiting for the screwdriver.
