So how many more stories of these drives being absolute garbage do we all have?
Of all the drives I’ve ever owned. From Hitachi, Maxxtor, Seagate, Western Digital and others…this is the only one I’ve had that died. Apparently this is a trend with these particular drives?
This one is currently a paperweight
I am always so blown away by the ridiculous failure rate of the 3TB Barracuda when Seagate also made the 3TB Constellation I’ve been using without a hitch for so many years.
Never owned a Barracuda because the Backblaze report on their failure rates that showed the Barracuda as the worst of the worst came out before I started shopping for “big” hard drives.
