Floor and Desk Shake can damage parts? (hdd perhaps?)

[lansanov]

hello, i placed my pc in a desk in the second floor of our house in which the floor is made of wood. Every time my fat[strike]xxx[/strike][strike][/strike] brother walks in, the floor shakes and so does the desk. Will this cause damage to any of my parts? thanks

I suppose if the shaking is bad enough.

Is there wobble? You can put some spacers under the legs/feet to get rid of wobble. It may even have adjustable feet, try turning them.

I couldn't describe the shaking but I would say it's comparable to a magnitude 1-2 earthquake. Theres no wobble though,just shaking. The legs of the table are rested firmly on the floor, so there's no space for it to wobble.

Thanks, I'll try to rest my system unit in something that will absorb the shaking. A thick styro perhaps

Brother causing earthquakes? I think, you're exaggerating.
Is he like 200kg or something?

He's not that heavy but he walks like he's warstomping the place. Our wooden second floor shakes very easily and I can see my system unit shake for some seconds when he goes in.
