That claim of
some drums operating at 75,000rpm has to be a typo...
I can believe 7500 - but 75,000? Ouch!
Eckert once made the claim that, ?laboratory models have been operated in excess of
75,000 rpm.? That's probably where they got that.
God help them if a drum comes apart at that speed. I doubt the casing
would hold together.
