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

>>56439388

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.
>>56439096
not HGST
>>56439154
Mechanical hard drives? Why not SSDrives, aren't they better at surviving?
>>56439154
i've had six wd blues fail since 2010. not kidding. awful drives.
>>56439154
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.
