Do you have the link?

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.

>>106016788
You're not using it right.

After all these years and this lie still prevails

>>106016780 (OP)
i bought a 500GB HDD 15 years ago and it's still working. Maybe i'm lucky.

>>106016780 (OP)
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.

>>106016780 (OP)

>>106019573
That's because you are not old enough to have used a Maxtor. ;)

>>106020743

>>106020855
>data hoard ai
are you stupid lmao just generate it when you need it

>>106021024
i meant models. You know like llama or stable diffusion checkpoints etc... Theyll get rid of that at some point.

>>106019523
Nah I've had both seagate and WD over the years and only 1 died due to mechanical failure.
