Apparently adding data to your hard drive makes it noticably heavier. It seems like some people took that thread seriously. Surely that is not possible...

[portej05]

Well, I'd accept that SSDs get slightly heavier (hey, you're storing electrons, at 9*10^-31kg each!)

[redsniper]

I... don't think it works that way.

[IceFire]

Oh....my....Wow!

Fine...I'll accept that SSD's get heavier but I'd hate for the day where I'd notice the difference

This is another example of where some people are afraid of computers/assume that whatever happens inside is all magic.

[Sololop]

Oh wow. People never cease to amaze me.

hmmm, something that small, you gotta infer it.... (dreamy:
imagines flinging SSDs at some unimaginable speed past very big magnets and measuring their deflection... or perhaps measuring the scale of destruction at the other end)

"This is a rare error when the overwriting mechanism of the memory banks lead to an overflow of data because it cannot add on and thus super-stack, increasing the weight significantly.  While normal weight/file ratio is approximately 0.02 oz/GB, in rare cases such as these, it can go as high as somewhere around 6 oz/GB.

One solution is going to the system32 folder (C:\WINDOWS\system32) and deleting certain unnecessary files, but too much tampering may cause permanent changes to your computer"

*Cough* TECH SPED! *Cough*

I have a real dislike for those people who can't tell **** from bananas, relating to computers anyway


I'd really love to pimp slap K_McLovin across the face right now
