HOILY SHIT DUDE!? has this ever happen to you!?
so i was laying down in the living room while my little brother was on the family computer when all of a sudden i hear a loud ass pop/bang sound. i thought it was a paintball gun but i wasnt sure, so i look around the house to find out if maybe a picture fell down or something, nope... so i go back and laydown and i hear it happen again just not half as loud... this time i know where it came from, the computer desk. so i thought to myself maybe Mike just keeps kicking something, but he didnt... come to find out, a CD exploded in the computers drive! the drive wouldnt open at all, millions of pieces were in it, so i shut it down, cracked her open and removed all the peices. lucky for us the drive wasnt damaged... but its still weird that it broke up into a million pieces.. has that ever happen to you?????

Wasn't damaged? How much "plastic dust" do you think is floating around there? Spend $35 on a new drive.
I've read before that the 52X (I think) limit is imposed by the laws of physics rather than technology - if the drive spins much faster the disc will disintegrate due to centrifugal forces. Or something. Perhaps this is what happened to yours.Comment

That doesn't mean that the CD Drive is only 5 months old, though.Originally posted by Jeff aka NIGHTfall

Yeah that happened to me playing Sim City 3000..
The game was running unusually slow, and I didnt realise it till I closed the game and saw the cd drive sticking out slightly. I shut down and find thousands of cd pieces.. crazy shit.Comment

damn
did little pieces of CD get stuck in your drive?Comment
-
Hahaha.. I didn't know CD's could explode!
Even if the CD drive is new, could be defective..

Sometimes the CD can just explode because of how fast it's going.
Another funny one I read about was a certain game that went airborn in your pc and exploded. They tracked it down to the paint on the top of the CD was unbalanced so the wind resistance was making it wobble and take off.

Saw this on Myth Busters one day. They were testing to see if the cd could explode and kill you, they found it could do a lot of damage but probably would not kill you, it was really cool to see the cd spin that fast in slow motion, it starts to ripple and then flies apart!even ADULTS need TOYS

The MythBusters 2nd episode on the discovery channel did a test where they got the CD to explode. But I think they ended up having to use a grinder to get the cd to spin fast enough....Comment

this is very common with cd readers/recorders that spin faster than 30xOriginally posted by Jeff aka NIGHTfall
the computer is only 5months old..
The amount of RPM that thing is spinning at, without really high quality media, is sure to happen some time another. Especially when playings games and the cd is constantly being read for long periods of time.

I've seen that happen a couple of times at one of the places I worked. I think it's mainly damaged or defective CD's. At that high RPM they disintegrate.Comment

Heard of it with some of the earlier DVD writers on the consumer market.ICQ: 2262.73945Comment

That did probably happen because the CD did have a very small crack on it.
They are spinning so fast so it does not take much before they "explode".Comment

interesting, never even knew such a thing was possible.Comment

Never even heard of it happening... weird shit manComment

It happened to me! It was so tragic. I was playing The Sims Livin' Large...sounded like a gun going off very near my head...next thing I knew, the game froze and I got an error message...couldn't open the drive. Had to uninstall it, pry open the door and shake out all the pieces. Mostly it was shattered to bits, with a couple of large bits and plenty of dust.
I shudder to think what happened to my poor Sims...
I keep meaning to write Maxis and ask for a replacement, but I figure I'll wait (and wait, and wait...) for Sims II, instead.Looking for PHP/MySQL solutions? Check out Cyboriginal - custom scripts, installation services and more.Comment
