    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate, in one aspect, to a computing device. The computing device may include a timing engine and a location engine. The timing engine may obtain reset information associated with a plurality of computing devices located at a plurality of locations, wherein each computing device comprises a timer. The timing engine may also obtain timer values of the timers of the plurality of computing devices. The location engine may determine, based at least on the reset information and the timer values, the location of at least one of the plurality of computing devices.

    Abstract: An example hard disk drive includes a multiplexer. The multiplexer is coupled to a communication interface, a hard disk drive controller, and a storage device. The multiplexer is to, in response to a detection of a first selection command via a first set of pins of the communication interface, route first firmware data from a second set of pins of the communication interface to the storage device during a first flashing operation. The hard disk drive controller is bypassed during the routing of the first firmware data. The multiplexer is also to, in response to a detection of a second selection command via the first set of pins, route second firmware data from the hard disk drive controller to the storage device during a second flashing operation. The second firmware data is received via the third set of pins.
