Just a note -- "unbending" bent metal parts is in general not a good
idea. Repeated flexure (even one unbending) can lead to metal fatigue
and eventual failure. I know disk drives cost money, but I would
rather fix it now than have it fail unexpectedly.
I agree that it's pretty useless to put the stickers on the disk
gates...
