So how many more stories of these drives being absolute garbage do we all have?

Of all the drives I’ve ever owned. From Hitachi, Maxxtor, Seagate, Western Digital and others…this is the only one I’ve had that died. Apparently this is a trend with these particular drives?

This one is currently a paperweight

    My experience with Seagate is:

    1. 2008 - 2022 (still works, but retired and makes noises)
    2. 2013 - 2015
    3. 2015 - still working
    4. 2016 -2018
    5. 2023 - still working

    Either they are super hard drive 9000 or die within a few years.
