Biography

Surge Coat.

Once a technological thief who used to simply steal from ATM machines, he acquired a device called the "Surge Coat" and gained a number of abilities that allowed him to manipulate electricity and electronics. As Hard Drive, he is the ultimate hacker and a mercenary by nature who worked for whoever paid him the most. Once captured in prison, Dark Kat freed him and offered him revenge on the SWAT Kats. He stole the Turbokat jet and tried to frame them for wrecking the city. After being exposed, the SWAT Kats defeated him again, resulting in him and Dark Kat being captured and sent to jail again.

Later, he went back to his old ways and stole an Enforcer tank named "Behemoth", but was defeated once again by the SWAT Kats.
