A TI-86 can query 60k rows without breaking a sweat.

If his hard drive overheated from that, he is doing something very wrong, very unhygienic, or both.

He probably mining crypto on top of running his SQL queries.

What? You don't run your hard drives in the oven while baking brownies? It makes them zesty.
