I know that they're not always the most available, but I find it interesting that they don't purchase _any_ Fujitsu drives.
After an experiment with their helium-filled drives, I've gone all-in to great success.
- dsr_ 6y agoFujitsu sold their disk drive business to Toshiba in 2009, didn't they?
- numpad0 6y agoThey still make drives!? I've seen relics like 147GB 15K SAS marked "FUJITSU LIMITED" but don't think they make 14TB 7K2 SATA that Backblaze uses.
- busterarm 6y agoderp, see other reply.
- busterarm 6y agoStupid me, wrong company. I was thinking Toshiba. I bought Toshiba 16TB drives -- MG08ACA16TE And hey! 0.0% failure rate!
- zepearl 6y agoBought 8 Toshiba N300 (HDWN180, 8TB) consumer HDDs, maybe about one year ago, and they're all still working.
