Re: Hard Drive shock protection

For measuring shock, like bumps, maybe an accelerometer would work, like something you might use in physics. Hooked up to one of those vernier lab pro computer things, you could probably get a fancy graph and find the shock force. I guess that could work for vibrations too maybe? Just a thought
