2.5" hard drives are usually very robust when powered down. That comes from the age when they were expected to be used in laptops.

I was about to say “the age? You mean today” and realized 2.5” “laptop” hard drives aren’t really used in laptops anymore, even the low-end ones. Damn.

  • Funny, I thought the exact same thing. I still think of SSD's as "fancy" like it's still 2008 or something.
