Re: My laptop doesnt work on planes....
Ideally 8K.... no human sedentary impact to past 10L ft ) again sedintary vs hiking up a MT) and no I have seen many drives saying don't take over 10K ft in their specs
And again there are a FEW that do suffer atlitude sickness in 8-10K planes.... 90% don't

said by public  :said by Hayward : Especially possibly a poorly sealed hard drive.... All drives have a equalizing vent port. REALLY want to give the FACT of that... because it going to let in all kinds of hunidity and other damaging factors if trure.
OK 8K in stead of 9-10K ft either way 10K is about the max for human used to near sea level, and many of them (though really smal number) get altititude sick bcause just to different but over 10K ft efective pressure. aND A hd minimally SPECED ro that might also.... instead of even 11K
Again the spec limit for most hard drives.... oh this NEVER happens? (Again when the few humans DO get sick)
And these few hardware just speced to edge do fail when they SHOULDN'T.
No to my understanding they are hermetically sealed to a certain level....and that is it.... acording to you 2K ft below max but stil rated to 10K still OBVIOUSLY DO.
May be more critical to them than most humans. We can acept humidity... sealed corrisive potential units can not
But eveidentaly according to you cabin pressure or HD seal can EVERY fall out of spec and bot are LITTERALLY TO EDGE tied to them. HUGE BS.
Not many PSI either way can make A HUGE DIFFERENCE.
Dont want to believe me ask ANY scuba diver!!!
ITS one of two things airline are heavinly exceeding alt specs or HD manufacturers are HEAVILY cutting corners on ratings.

A hard disk drive[2] (often shortened as hard disk[3], hard drive[4], or HDD) is a non-volatile storage device that stores digitally encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces. Strictly speaking, "drive" refers to the motorized mechanical aspect that is distinct from its medium, such as a tape drive and its tape, or a floppy disk drive and its floppy disk. Early HDDs had removable media; however, an HDD today is typically a sealed unit (except for a filtered vent hole to equalize air pressure) with fixed media.[5][6]

» en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive And that answered what.... modern drives are HERMETICALLY SEALED look that up... no vents... and when there are again can cause problems while the pressure is changing and if humid/non clean room environment problems down the road.

They all have vent holes for pressure purposes. If they were fulled sealed they could potentially rupture during changes in pressure (such as when flying), or even if you drove up into the mountains.

New York, NY | The issue here is that the problem is limited to a specific hard drive that was included for a period of time in a specifc computer. The company acknowledges this, however they wont simply send you a replacement as most others will. |

But is an odd functionality.... so can se why they might deny they might to ignore the obvious design flaw.
But hard drives are not vented but HERMETICALLY sealled (maybe look it up) but also meand they are presured sealed to a reasonable presure which should not be the minimum 10K but to like 12K maybe more.
