I didn't see the initial post on this one, but I
would also be
surprised because recluses do tend to be very reclusive. The natural
response to opening a disk drive door would be for them to go deeper
into the machine.
Plus, for the record, pulling out my MD for a second, spiderbite is actually
quite uncommon. People come in and tell me about the "spider" that
"bit"
them when usually it's just a garden-variety abscess, usually an ingrown
hair or something similar. Spiders don't go around biting people randomly
without some sort of provocation or harassment.
Many CA sightings are of desert recluse, but most
are just another random species of spider that happens to be brown.
House spiders and wolf spiders come to mind.
