  • It can depend on the fan a lot more. Sometimes they are accessible and standardized, other times not so much. And it is unlikely the fan is the reason for drive failures. If you had a spinning disk drive, heat might be a factor, but it would be minimal.

    And you can also check youtube for videos on disassembly. 9 times out of 10, drive replacement is just removing the bottom casing and just taking the drive out. Super easy and hard to mess up

    Potentially, yes. However, it is something to think about on a personal threat model. For 99% of people, a password manager will greatly improve their security. An individual will likely know if they are at a point that they cannot trust a password manager, and this guide would be moot.

    In addition, it is my hope that if you use a password manager, MFA is enabled to reduce the chance of a breach even more.
