Hard drive failures
Heyya,
So I'm starting to wonder, what on earth is up? I've gone through.. two 1tb hard drive's, 1 from WD, 1 from Seagate, and now a 2TB drive.. from seagate.. They've all.. Failed O_o within 3-6months. Every single one of them. Now, what interests me more is that, my very old WD-DELL drive's, one with 250gb and one with 500, continue to work without a problem for several years now.. What's up with that? The thing is, they've all been treated well and have suffered no major knocks, the 'environment' in my room is fairly stable and even with my new PC with a very air-efficient chasis, still a failure so early in it's life? I'm starting to feel that, the smaller, older hard drives are more reliable and are of better build quality than the newer ones that are being brought to us because they've knocked off the price they also knocked off the quality. Am I right in saying that? Inevitably this means I've to replace this 2tb hard drive that is now dieing so early in it's lifespan. I'm losing my trust quickly for both WD and Seagate but if someone can recommend me a drive that will last I would appreciate it.. |
