    I would estimate 6000 hd boards at around 33 LBS. That would be my best guess.

    that would be about 10 to an ounce, or160 to the pound. I think you missed a decimal point there.

    I do not get 33 lbs. If you figure each board is 1oz and you had 6000 boards you would have 6000oz. 6000oz/16z=375lbs, pretty big difference from 33lbs. We take all our hard drive boards off and we get an average of 1.35oz of boards for every pound of hard drives. So 6000lbs we would figure there to be 8100oz of boards. 8100oz of boards would end up being 506lbs of boards.
