I can 100% see some corporate drone think that is what threat actors do if the come across a random HDD and want to pull the data off it or even some "data recovery specialist" for when a drive dies.
This might be such a dumb question, but technically if you have something like a microscope. Would u be able to see the data on a HHD which is written into it?
Straight up boomer humor
This reminds me of the old bash.org post where the guy says he writes data to his drives with magnetised needles and a steady hand.

Is this one of those stock pictures like a person holding a soldering iron like a pencil?
I hope so. Unless it's a hazing thing, like fetch me 20 skyhooks from the van....

I think the data is stored magnetically. So, I wouldn’t think so. Maybe though lol
On a CD you definitely can. But HDDs store it magnetically.
