Two laptops in my household have had drive failures in the last month. Guess what brand and model the drives were.

Seagate

Seagate Barracuda
WD Blue

Carrot?

>WD Blue

you are correct! they were both WD Blue 320gb drives manufactured within the past five years.

laptop hdds do that.
get an ssd.

but user-kun SSD is a meme

ssd are botnet tho

SSDs out for Harambe lolol xD

u prolly live inside verry dangerouz magnetic field

Hitachi or Seagate

Replace with Samsung EVO and you are gud to go.

one got an 850 Evo, other got an MX300. WD is off the menu boys

>>Hitachi
>bad
you are retarded

i've never experienced a hard drive failure

Blues suck. I had 2 fail back to back around 2010.

WD

>another report that a WD drives are shit.
>I still see people who unironically buy WD-s because they "are better than any other hard drive"
save me.

you mean Toshiba?
Hitachi used to be pretty average in terms of reliability.

Neither WD or Seagate have been the same since that flood wiped out the harddrive market.
I guess they both found out they could sell shit drives at overprice since there are were no other major contenders and just kept going even after the market leveled out.

not HGST

Mechanical hard drives? Why not SSDrives, aren't they better at surviving?

i've had six wd blues fail since 2010. not kidding. awful drives.

Time to start a backup of my blues

Leaning towards putting a WD Green in as my long term storage and a couple of SSDs as active storage.
