No matter what actually happened here we can confidently state this clown is full of shit and has no idea what he's doing.

What’s the bet the software they downloaded is malware and it’s crypto mining?

I've used local hard drives from like 1992 and I have never ever gotten them to overheat.

Is this a real post? I can’t seemed to find it on that website “X, formerly known as Twitter.”

IT guy checking in.

The only time I've even seen drive temp sensor alarms is on server raid arrays and other similar hard drives/SSDs.... Never in my life have I seen one available on a consumer device, nor have I seen any alarm for and drive temp, go off. It just doesn't happen.

IMO, this is one of those language barriers where people call their computer chassis (and everything in it) the "hard drive".

Applying that assumption, their updated statement is: His computer over heated.

Idk what kind of shit system he's running on that 60k rows would cause overheating, but ok.

Maybe he left his shed lizard skin on top of the hard drive that caused the overheating?

The trick is to take the hard drive out of the EVA foam.
