All hard drives die just make sure you deploy zfs, mirror the drives, and setup the same offsite. If you are really worries backup to tape or m disc once a quarter or something.

I've never had any drive fail within 7 years of use, that includes Seagate drives. Either I'm the luckiest fucker on the planet, or you're all full of shit.

Nah I've had both seagate and WD over the years and only 1 died due to mechanical failure.
