	   |  Gained 100gigs of hard drive space today for free  
 
			
			Hey everybody, I was playing around with the stuff inside my computer today! I know that, on my car, if I put a magnet on an oil filter or get one of those magnetic drain-plug bolts, all the microscopic metal debris and filings will stick to it.  
I figured that, like the benefits of using a magnet on oil filter/drain plugs, I would be able to achieve some sort of benefit on my hard drive. I tested this theory today by placing a magnet on my hard-drive.  
The results? Well, before I placed the magnet on my hard drive, I had 30gigs of space on my hard-drive (using windows 3.1 on my 486). After placing the magnet on my hard-drive, I checked and noticed I have 39.7gigs  of hard drive space!  A modest, but reasonable gain.  
This picture illustrates what I mean. The cartesian form proves that the coefficient of the polar form in the exponent region means that there will be a gain by placing a magnet on the data-sequence amplifier disc of the hard-drive.    
In theory, the quantity of hard-drive space unlocked by using a magnet would depend on the amount of hard-drive capacity to begin with. I hypothesize that if you had a 300gig hard drive, you'd gain ~100gigs of space.  
I found this graph helpful for proving my theory:    
Many of you skeptics or pessimists would disagree, but have you actually tried it? If you haven't, then please consider these results before posting revscene style responses on this thread. Notice the tangent increase relative to the magnetic pull of +3 (pi) over +90? That's what I mean!     
Below, we see how the wave equation relates to the increase of hard-drive space in relation to the magnetic sequence amplifier. Don't get carried away with the integration of the factors involved in cancelling the variables in order to simplify. That's just silly. In line (8) of the equation below, we cancel and factor out the variables to achieve 0. That would mean by not placing the magnet on your hard-drive, you wouldn't gain any hard-drive space.     
That's all for now. Thank you very much for reading my thread. If anyone needs help with this, feel free to ask questions. Bye for now.

If the cos was factored by 12 in magnet strength, I would advise raising the variable rate to minus 5(pi)^2 over root 2. In other words, a fridge magnet should work just fine.

			You don't need to understand the equations to test this theory out for yourselves. Grab a fridge magnet or whatever you can find and stick 'em on! I can see hard-drive sales dropping in the upcoming months once this trick leaks around the internet.

			This Works!
 I gained a full 100 Gigs of Hard Drive space, and now I have even more space to store my Rape Pornography!
 
 Thank you BNR32_Coupe!
 
 I'm a believer!

			WTF, while I was trying to put a magnet near the harddrive, my mom came in, scared the shit out of me and I accidently dropped the magnet on my dick...
 WOW!!! now it grows 3 inches ... for FREE!!! Thanks!

Hold on, are you saying the the direction of the electromotive force can be altered by moving the transmission of data through a magnetic field? If    = electromotive force and ΦB = the magnetic flux wouldn't that mean you're using the following equation?     
Or are you saying that if the spatial dependence of electric field were to move counter-clockwise to how the hard drive is spinning?   
I would think that if you used the old 12v flashlight battery with a copper wire wrapped around a nail trick and you passed it from from to back along the BOTTOM  of the hard drive casing (not along the fucking top, you tards) you could temporarily increase the RPM for the duration of the length of time your computer is turned on.       
The magnetic flux ΦB through a surface Σ (being the hard drive casing) would mean that if you used dA as an element of surface area of the moving surface Σ(t) (the hard drive on and spinning), B is the magnetic field (your 12v battery/copper wire/nail combo), and B•dA is a vector dot product (the power running through your computer).     
Am I right? Does anyone want to try this? I don't have a 12v battery    |   |   |   |     |  12-07-2008, 05:09 PM | #25 |   | VLS Barista Brat
