  • I have Exos drives (which are probably more enterprise 24/7), and I don’t really see a difference to normal everyday consumer use HDDs. They’re just loud af, which is honestly a huge drawback

    That said, I’ve only ever had one HDD fail, and these have only been running 24/7 for about a year

    If they’re not that much more, might be worth it for the NAS drives. Just depends how important your data is and how much you value peace of mind



  • My thought on this has always been: if you care about your data (family photos, music), then you should spend the money to get new drives

    But a lot of people hate this, and argue that if your backups work properly then you can buy any HDD you want regardless of abuse or how old it is.

    I just want my shit to work and not have to worry about it so I buy new

    Porsche sub and owners are just generally snobbish and dickish. If you don’t drive a PTS GT3, nobody cares, even though they don’t own Porsches themselves lol

    BMW is the happy medium. If you go below, you get a shit crowd. If you go above, you get a bunch of pretentious snobs
