You could get a new battery from a known good source (or light a couple on fire to make sure they’re not explosive). It should be relatively easy to check the rest of the components for anything near a dangerous amount of explosive, and the body can be replaced with a custom one and/or subjected to the fire test.
No offense to your post, but I think this is an absolutely terrible way to display data. A line graph would be so much cleaner and easier to read.
What a novel and interesting idea! If only it wasn’t all a huge scam to take money from investors!
Do you have a source for that? I am unaware of any modern hard drives that support reading individual bits; the minimum unit of data that can be read is generally one sector, or 512 bytes. If the sector fails to be read, the drive will usually attempt to read it several times before giving up and reporting a read error to the PC.
Data recovery companies can remove the platters from a damaged drive and put them in a working drive, as long as the platters are in good condition, preventing further damage. (If the platters themselves are damaged, you’re screwed either way).
