I keep hearing people say that hard drives won’t last long and to always have backups. But if it is like that, that means you would have to be buying drives consistently? Has anyone ever had a hard drive work for them successfully for a decade or even more where they wouldn’t have to be buying more?
I have a drive (wd green 3tb) that is now in like 12 years, and has a uptime of 7.5 years. It works but for me its in EOL hahah
