Backblaze Hard Drive Stats for 2016

I had four of the Seagate 3TB drives that are listed in their ratings with high failure rates. All four of mine died in less than 3-years. They were a really disappointing purchase.

I had 4 Seagate drives of varying capacity and model numbers die on me within 11 weeks of each other, all were less than 3 years old and one of them was in use for less than an hour.

Never again.

Same - had two and both died. No recourse for an obviously defective product.
