They talk about that in their article

Don't be like one of those redditors who thinks he's found some glaring flaw in a study that the researchers themselves didn't see that somehow makes the whole thing wrong

If this case makes it to court, they'll probably find out through discovery how many of those drives got RMA'd.

That doesn't stop them from buying more Seagates.

Bought a Seagate HDD, the start connector broke within 6 months. Haven't bought one since

Would be more interesting seeing statistics from a larger company such as Google or Microsoft. Heck, Microsoft would probably be the most reliable ones since they have failure rates for the hard disks of all Windows 10 users.
