A shack-sensor apparatus may include a sensor configured to detect a positional state of a hard-drive drawer. The shock-sensor apparatus may also include a mounting component coupled to the sensor and configured to mount the sensor in a location to monitor the positional state of the hard-drive drawer. In addition, the shock-sensor apparatus may include a computing module, electronically coupled to the sensor, that analyzes sensor data provided by the sensor to predict a shock event of the hard-drive drawer and send, in response to predicting the shock event, a signal to at least one hard drive in the hard-drive drawer to prevent damage to the hard drive. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
