What an awful title

Best Buy 0% credit card? Idk what’s in Ireland though lol

I have Exos drives (which are probably more enterprise 24/7), and I don’t really see a difference to normal everyday consumer use HDDs. They’re just loud af, which is honestly a huge drawback

That said, I’ve only ever had one HDD fail, and these have only been running 24/7 for about a year

If they’re not that much more, might be worth it for the NAS drives. Just depends how important your data is and how much you value peace of mind

This thing gets uglier with each refresh. It was kinda handsome when it very first came out

My thought on this has always been: if you care about your data (family photos, music), then you should spend the money to get new drives

But a lot of people hate this, and argue that if your backups work properly then you can buy any HDD you want regardless of abuse or how old it is.

I just want my shit to work and not have to worry about it so I buy new

People naively rushing to the website expecting some kind of Black Friday deal

Porsche sub and owners are just generally snobbish and dickish. If you don’t drive a PTS GT3, nobody cares, even though they don’t own Porsches themselves lol

BMW is the happy medium. If you go below, you get a shit crowd. If you go above, you get a bunch of pretentious snobs

Really? I feel like people are talking about WD failures all the time on here

The Seagate’s seem dead reliable as long as you don’t get the cheapest option

It’s just money laundering at this point
