“How to Build a Hard Drive: A Factory Tour”
https://www.backblaze.com/blog/how-to-build-a-hard-drive-a-factory-tour/

“I am a sucker for a factory tour. I marvel with wide-eyed wonder as I
watch how pieces and parts get created, assembled, and tested into
something you can recognize and use. Whether it’s making beer or
cars—sign me up. So, when Seagate Technology offered me a chance to tour
their hard drive prototyping facility in Longmont, Colorado, I was
powerless to resist. After all, I’d get to see how they prototype the
process for building hard drives before they scale to full production.
As a bonus, I also got to see their reliability lab and to talk with
them about how they perform fault analysis on failed drives, but I’ll
save those topics for a future post. For now, put on your lab coat and
follow me to Longmont, the tour is starting.”
