No.  Not even a little bit.  Only when dealing with liars and contractors does quartz mysteriously become an expensive commodity.

Woo then the quartz platters can definitely be a thing. But then again, finding a way to artificially manufacture it would still be the best as we would be able to recycle it as like with other metals and reduce waste. Also significantly making the process of the production of such hard drives extremely cheap in terms of material cost.
