  • Old Hard discs

    One can use WDC or other old harddiscs already they are wired up, remove the pcb and use it, they have ucontroller, ram etc, if u find difficult to change and use mobiles for radars or soanrs or PI...or use a working old CD player PCB...

      !?

      Is it, what i think it is? HD controller has low power,low noise,high gain front end. Iputs are fed by COILS !!! Coils are actually windings on hf heads....Isnt it? Theoretically YES! It could be used as md front end...
      Also uPC can be used for data acquisition...But who will understand all those about hd controller board? I am lost at first view...
      Regards!

      EXPLAIN YOUR IDEA MORE DETAILED PLEASE!

          instead of building a pcb and soldering a new micro etc etc on to a new PI board...use the electronics on the HDD drive disasembling the Hdd, rewrite the software, use a 10 inch coil and mosfet Tx, lets not throw the old electronics into store room, lets reuse them....dont be worried of the complexity see the data sheets they are easy
