Usually the issues with hard drives come from the heads. If the head is parked and the drive is not spinning, it can handle a bit of abuse before breaking. If the drive is plugged in and spinning then it becomes fairly fragile, even though most drives know to park the head in case of a fall. Also, in any case it's always better to have a backup of your data, just in case.
Neutered or not they will still kill for fun, that's what cats do. And they have lots of fun. Indoor cats have a longer lifespan and are generally healthier than outdoor cats. Also, with the proper stimulation and environment, they're happier indoors. You don't need a mansion, you need high shelves, scratching posts, hiding places, etc. The amount of space is less important than the quality.
It's bad because of the sheer number of them. A single cat can kill over a million animals over its lifetime I believe. A single pair of cats can produce around a thousand cats over the course of a few years, so that adds up. I love cats but they're absolutely an ecological disaster if left unchecked.
She's making sure that there are no scary things around. That includes wind, water, people, bugs etc.
