i few drives that I have are 10yod and a couple more 5+…
do modern drives meant to last and be replaced every a couple of years?
I dont mind if a drive fails because ill have dupes… what I want is to minimize the failures.
wd red+ and wd ae make look promising but i dont have an experience with them
