Has anybody put their HD in a chamber full of helium to see how it would work?

How long does it take the helium to replace almost all the air, assuming the HD vent is positioned downward?

Will probably ceash the heads as the drive is unable do deal
with the changed physics.

I think in reality if myth busters got on the case it would show no
measurable difference at all. But then again i have removed the lid from
an operational hd and the lack a lid was enough to render the drive
unable to read its platters properly.

I was most dissapointed by that because i wanted to show it working as a
point of interest.
SSD dont give quite the wow factor of magnetic drives with the lid off.

You are joking I assume. I can't imaging a drive lasting long unless you
live in a clean room.
