So how many more stories of these drives being absolute garbage do we all have?
Of all the drives I’ve ever owned. From Hitachi, Maxxtor, Seagate, Western Digital and others…this is the only one I’ve had that died. Apparently this is a trend with these particular drives?
This one is currently a paperweight
I got one of these for very cheap and put a bunch of data on it, thinking I’d lucked out. Then I learned about the lawsuit, thought “oh fuck” and immediately ordered a different one to replace it.
I decided since I already loaded data on it, I’d keep it around as a redundant backup. What else am I going to do with it?
