Because of the 5 years warranty?

Because they are clueless.
Anybody who actually cares about his data knows that HGST drives are the most reliable.

What did he mean by that?

Western Digital is horrible. The used to honor OEM drives for warranty returns. Nowadays they just tell you they don't handle them and to contact the retailer you brought it at. Fuck these assholes.

Probably something similar to how every ferrari is a fiat but not really.

I don't think anyone particularly liked WD. They just had no other choice after Samsung was bought by Seagate.

>tfw WDC is making their own drives shit on purpose to make people purchase high-priced HGSTs

>backblaze

>shit performance or 500GB drives top
wow! what a deal!
meanwhile every sane person buys WD blacks

Samsung was bad desu. I have a spinpoint f3. Only good thing about it is performance, everything else is bad.

source?

Spinpoint F3 was one of the most reliable drives there was. RMA rates confirmed this.

shit buying crap all the time it's just the way it is
ex AMD and ATI

what's the point in 1M hours MTBF if after 4 years I only have 21k on it

>Backblaze
Please just stop. Their data is completely irrelevant to regular end users.

>WD black
its like you hate having money, barracuda drives are faster and 3x cheaper

You don't care about your data.
You don't even care about speed since you would be buying SSDs.

Enjoy your Western Digital hard drives.

So this is a seagate shill thread, neat. . .

Still won't buy their drives after how they merged with maxtor, and became absolute shit when it came to firmware, way worse than the head parking issue WD had

>being a wd shill
wew lad

Barracudas are competing with blues.
Blacks are more reliable and have a longer warranty.

Blacks also have a much faster 4K write (almost twice as fast) and a clearly faster 4K read.

Why would i bring up the head parking issue?

At this point i'm willing to try toshiba drives just to see if they are as bad as the cucking overloads in the hdd market that are seagate and WD
