Releasing inert gas from fire suppression units that were over pressurized 
resulted in an extremely loud noise – causing cabinets full of hard drives to 
vibrate – which got transmitted to the read – write heads of the drives.

Amazing sort of outage + data loss, and this time the physical security plant 
chief gets to write up the RCA.
