What is the longest lasting hard drive? Your experiences?
Hi all,
I know this is commonly asked online, but I the threads I see aren't recently and are quite old.
I see some people say that hard drives can last for 10 years because they've had them on and running for 10 years.
According to some threads I've seen, HGST and Hitachi are long lasting, WD is OK, and seagate is awful.
But, I've seen a hard drive here:
MAXTOR 7Y250M0 SATA 250GB-7200RPM HARD DRIVES Search Page.
It looks like a long lasting as well as I've seen it on some articles.
So my main question is:
What is the longest lasting hard drive, and where can I buy it?
Or if it's hard for you to answer that, please tell me what was the longest hard drive you've had?
I'm curious to see what you guys have had and the longest lasting ones. I'd like to buy one that's long lasting, new or used.
Thanks
