Hard Drive Failure?

Question

Here is a question
Normally people would extened their hard drive life
but I on the other hand was challenged to shorten the hard drive's life as much as possible with only softwares and s
still make the hard drive very useful.
P.s it's a 10gb internal hard drive (i'm not trying this with anything expensive)

I mean that it should be useful (a game, OS
something like that)

Answer 1

Run a virus scanner non-stop doing "deep-scans".

Answer 2

Hard drives have pretty high MTBF (mean time before failure). If you happen to be doing your experiment on a good one, you might just die of boredom before you get the results that you want.

Answer 3

find a pice of magnet and touch your hard drive with it (let it stick to some part for few minutes), you save lots of time instead of running software

Answer 4

I have heard that if your hard drive fails that you can put it in the freezer to fix it. So if you get it to fail try this to see if it works.

Answer 5

keep reformatting it and installing windows again and again, this will def shorten the life span! Also just keep purposefully adding viruses if you want!!
