RyanSmithAT: I routinely receive emails from various groups asking me to update links in forum posts, as if it….

gavbon86: Big props to for doing this for those who couldn't attend Computex.gavbon86: RT ASRock Unveils Z790 and B650E Taichi Lite Motherboards: Taichi Goes Lite.But, I'm a moron, I don't do it as often as I should, and I just don't seem to be able to get into the habit of it. You really have no control over it, it can happen any time, so the only way to address that truly is to make sure the impact of it happening is limited. I forget to sometimes though, I wish I didn't, but I do. The one on this machine is from 2001, and doesn't make a sound and is on 24/7. Having used well over 200 Seagate hard drives over the years, just my own, not for a company, that's not a bad success rate, especially since the ones in my main machines I don't change often. But, it worked before it's garage experience. I can't really blame it for that, it probably got stepped on and kicked and slept on by a raccoon. I actually did have a Seagate fail, but it was some 10K monster made in the 1990s, and it was left in a garage for about three years. I have never seen Seagate get into that situation, and they sell a lot of drives. So, it's not just people blabbing, some of it is very clearly bigger than that. I had bought two of their drives around that time, and both died as well. Western Digital's were similar, although I don't remember exactly what Western Digital did to fix it. IBM's drive problems were also not anecdotal, they were widely publicized and even recognized by IBM.

Crashtors I never bought, but they were so widely recognized as bad, it was way past anecdotal. And this goes back to the ST-255 and ST-251, although you'd have to low level them every few years because they were steppers. Hard drives can fail, but I have had none from Seagate fail, and this included drives over 5 years old, actually, some over 10.

backup, backup, backup, and go with the company that provides the best warranty, service, etc.
#Mozypro datasheet series#
Every time I've thought I had a great series of drives, I had failures at some point that made me rethink it. And none of them will ever produce that data for obvious reasons.Ĭase in point: I've had more hard drives than I can even remember in the last 15+ years, and I truly can't think of "the best manufacturer". The simple fact of the matter is: Without factual data from the hard drive makers themselves, there will NEVER be any method of determining which hard drive manufacturers are the most reliable. I use both RAID and a backup service from for the most important data.Īlso, I hear a lot of talk about how "Maxtor sucks!" or "Seagate sucks" or " sucks!". So as a consequence, I am extremely diligent about backing up my data. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day, maybe 5 years from now.
