By my previous viewing of the pics in that auction - yes, somebody ripped the platters out of the HDD, breaking the arms the R/W heads were mounted on. Said heads were left dangling. IIRC the auction copy indicated something had been done to the PSU as well. There was a close-up of some wires soldered to some spade lugs, but I don't recall seeing a good photo of the PSU itself. It didn't sell, so there's a good chance it'll be listed again in a few days. They tend to give things a few shots before they stop relisting. --S.
