    Have Seagate sorted their shit out? I have never had any other manufactures drives fail so often in the last 25 or so years. I have them a fresh chance about 10 years ago in a PS4 and guess what? It failed.

    This just sounds like 44Tb of fucking about restoring data to me.

      Stop buying consumer tier Barracudas. Their enterprise stuff is actually good.

        Good advice, but I’ve been burned so many times I’m just going elsewhere.

      44TB HAMR and it’s gonna be thousands of dollars and sold out for achival use anyway.

      The big wave of failures was related to a tsunami years ago. Their enterprise stuff fails at about the same rate as WD last i check. Phoronix or someone cloud data host release numbers annually
