Tour of Seagate's Drive Factory in China
Friday, December 5th, 2008
We are proud to have Seagate as our sponsor. They make all of these videos and trips around the world possible, so we thought "Why not go and see how a hard drive is built?" Here's the result where we visit Seagate's factory in Wuxi, China. They build more than a million hard drives for laptops in this factory every week! Here we get a tour with Tan Leong Hooi, VP of Wuxi Manufacturing at Seagate. Thanks to everyone at Seagate who both makes this show possible and makes most of the world's storage devices!

I'm very impressed with the products Zoho has been creating. I think they have quickly become one of the leaders for web apps.

Great video. You should have asked me to go along to. I would have blown his mind with hard disk tech questions... Let me in that FACTORY!
$300 for 500GB drive? We can tell you haven't bought a hard drive lately Robert
subject gives more to the post and it would make it easier to find post that relate to what you are looking for and the comments about what you are looking for.

why no questions about SSD and seagate?
$300 for 500gb? NO WAY. Target Stores $99.00 for a Western Digital External 500gb drive. And not on sale!
Too bad the answers were too general and broad, it was like reading a PR statement. Nice job on the camera settings although there was some repetition there too :) Did you upload the pics you took?
Excellent video Robert. Even my children stopped to watch some of it. They were intrigued to see the inside of a hard drive. Thanks for making it.
$300 for a 500g drive, I saw one on newegg for $90...
I like how the interviewee kept his answers vague and very general. They don't wanna give away all the trade secrets that the Chinese have stolen over the last few decades!
That was a really excellent video. Very informative. You seem increasingly comfortable and confident as an interviewer. I also *love* factor tour-type videos. Nice job. Good camera work and editing too.
I've noticed in some of your clips that your photog is focusing on the background instead of your subject. It happens enough to notice it, and it's a little distracting.
Cool stuff though.
