Re: Hard Drive shcok protection

A few questions before any real answers can be given:

1) What speed (in RPM) is your hard drive? Lower is better for this; SCSI is NOT A GOOD IDEA. Is flash media an option? Several different *nix distros can fit on a 2gb card, and vibrations wouldn't even bother the card.
2) How strong are the vibrations from the lawn mower?
3) How much would you be running this?
