I’ve got old WD 1TB / 2TB drives that were shucked’ from enclosures around the time of the original Xbox. Those drives were thrashed, dumping / copying games / movies / whatever. Thrown into backpacks and dragged around to LAN parties.
Have some refurb HGST (post acquisition) 4tb drives that are still going strong.
I’m on the other side of this argument.

Right on…well the best of luck. I think I need everything encased in concrete.
