No. My anecdotal evidence is that I have a 7 year old 3.5 in an old build that is still working as good as new.
I also have 2 and 6 year old externals from them doing fine.

Avoid all Toshibas and any pre-2008 Western Digitals.
I have 6 hitachi drives from like 10 years ago and none of them have failed. I'll take it.
