Animating a hard disk as a beginner
I want to do a short animated video tutorial on the topic: disk space management system with application in nanotechnology.
The first part of the tutorial is to start with a little introduction on what a hard disk is.That is where the animation of the hard disk comes in.First of all,d hard disk is to be shown,then it will be shown as an open hard disk with its parts visible.The parts do not need to be labeled.The animated hard disk has to be spinning.I know it is not easy to tell if the hard disk is spinning in real life but i want my video tutorial to show how it spins.I really do not know how to start but i am currently learning animation.It is a little difficult for me.Please i need help. -

Some answers to this question have appeared in the earlier thread [link]. Were they not acceptable or useful?

The answers i have gotten so far are not for a person like that is just learning animation for the first time.Just like i was told to animate the rotation of the hard disk,but i have not even drawn the hard disk yet.Do i really need to animate the hard disk from the scratch?Is there no way i can just paste its picture and continue the animation from there?If i need to animate the hard disk from the beginning please how do i start?

You can’t paste a picture into Cinema4d. You could do that in After Effects though. Perhaps you should use that instead.
