BTW, on the topic of disk drives, I heard about a prototype created by
the disk engineering group for a disk drive (3.5 inch, or maybe
smaller) that was made mostly of plastic. Apparently it was very
cheap, and might have been a big hit but people didn't want to invest
in the new manufacturing line required for it...

Ever look at a RZ23 (and later drives)? The HDA uses less metal than
most 3.2" disks even now.
