    2000 hard drives, first report.

    HD Boards 171 lbs

    I might add, that translates to roughly $1800, and, these were pretty puney boards in my opinion.

    6 month ago we were offered .45 for the deboarded drives, now I can't get .45 out of the stainless or aluminium seperated.

    Olddude did you do your contract with them in stone or did you leave a way to adjust for market prices?
