Ok, look at the image below.. It is a clock made out of an old hard drive and some LEDs.. Not that impressive huh?
Hard Drive Clock

Well you really dont understand what is going on until you see the video!

Have an old hard drive that no longer works? As long as it still spins up chances are you could build a clock out of your old hard drive!

You will need some electronic knowledge, some common electronic components and a bit of patients. The clock that is produced isn’t exactly practical since most hard drives (especially older ones) are too loud for a clock that is to operate 24 hours a day.
