I hope it ruins the brand. This sort of incompetence and gross negligence ought to cripple companies.

If WD is gone, are you going to buy drives from Seagate, seriously? I've had 3 hard drives from Seagate just fail by itself before, 0 from WD so far. HGST used to be good, but sold to WD. I have no experience with Toshiba, but they have less product diversity and higher price.

Since we’re being anecdotal here, I’ve > 5 seagate drives, one that’s more than 12 years old that hasn’t failed on me.
