Uhm... What? No that's not really a thing...

 

Want more performance? Move to an SSD.

There's not even a 'clock' in it, so you can't overclock a hard drive

if you take a car battery and adapt the sata power connector, It'll go fast.

Theoretically, if you could spin the platters faster and make the head move more quickly, you could improve performance, but I know no practical way to do this, and if you tried it would almost certainly result in errors and/or destroy the drive.

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

I wonder if DriveSavers could do it. That would be interesting if they ever made content pieces.

If anyone could (successfully), I bet it would be them.  Well, or the actual manufacturer, but then you might cross the line from overclock to just a new model lol

Yeah, lol. They'd be loud though. I ran 15K SAS drives before 60GB SSDs were "reasonable" in like 2007 and oh man...
