Best Answer

Yes, 6000 series aluminum is heat treated with various methods. for Example. A "natural age" is used to achieve a T4 state in certain alloys by allowing the material to sit. However the typical method of ageing an aluminum extrusion is to temper it in an age oven by "baking" the aluminum for a determined amount of time at a specific temperature.

What material is seagate hard drives made of?

I'm not sure about Seagate drives specifically, but I can contribute some generalizations. The primary outer casing (which is the block that appears to be machined) is from the 6000 series of Aluminium alloys (Al-Mg-Si). The lid of the casing on some HDDs is stainless steel, but the one on the Seagate drive I have looks like it's another Al alloy (either 5000 or 6000). Inside, the drive platters are Aluminium and coated with an extremely thin Platinum alloy. There are also two very strong magnets made from a neodymium iron boron composite.
