I guess my point about hard drives is most people never back them up and kind of always expect them to hold up over 5-10 years. They have years of photos, videos and documents stored on them. Then there are friends savvy enough to setup a raid system and invariably the raid hardware fails before the drive does and they can't get a replacement.

Thanks again for sharing the drive reliability statistics.




Well those folks should have Backblaze ;-)
