Seagate failure rate is ridiculous. Just do a google search for " seagate drive failure rates" for proof. I bought a 256 GB Seagate barracuda back in the day

Seagate failure rate is ridiculous. Just do a google search for " seagate drive failure rates" for proof. I bought a 256 GB Seagate barracuda back in the day and one morning it just spit read write errors after maybe 3 years of heavy use. I only buy western digital now. ive never seen one fail. If you have a Seagate then keep automated backups or you'll be sorry.
