Shouting in the Datacenter

A two-minute 2008 clip from Sun's Fishworks team in which Brendan Gregg uses DTrace to show disk latency spiking while he shouts at a rack of drives. Bryan Cantrill narrates the demonstration.

It is the go-to viral demo whenever HN discusses vibration, acoustic attacks, or sound affecting hard drives.
