We used the Prime computer systems, never had a head crash with more
than just a lot of substrate scraped off, but remember getting a lot of
colds as a result of computer rooms at 65 degrees then going outside
into 85 degree weather...

Worked a lot with DEC RP-07 drives (washing machine).
Believe they were seven platter, and when a head "crashed"
it generally acted like pin-ball and took out all of them.
The tops of ours were light smoke color so you could watch
the "excitement" of all the heads and various parts bouncing
around with little you could do about it until the drive stopped
spinning (the top would not open, probably a good thing)...
