I just bought a brand new 500gb Western Digital Hard Drive for my computer. Well i acedently dropped it, and it hit concrete. It says in it, that warranty is invalid if it exceeds shock in excess of 350gs. The drive seems fine and works, but i am afraid that it could stuff up at any point.
My question, what is 350gs, and how can that be calculated into distance dropped and speed?
Weight= 0.79lb / 360grams
Height dropped = 1.5meters
Can this be worked out?
