Large capacity Seagate: NOPE. Just go buy a P300 or X300 Tosh drive :v:

I pretty much lucked out when it comes to hardware reliability except for my 8800ultra dying[/QUOTE] I've only had one hdd go bad since 2004 and I used an 8800 ultra (iirc xfx card) from 2006-7 or whatever until I bought a gtx 760. The 8800 still works. I think it comes down to how well you treat your stuff, because I clean my pc for dust every 6 months max and I turn it off every night/when I leave the house if I don't have downloads going. But I know people who leave that shit on 24/7 and never clean it and their hardware lifespan is laughably bad.
The only companies I've ever trusted with high capacity drives have been Samsung and Western Digital. Every time I've given a different company a chance the drive has died within a year.
Seagate, more like Seagrave

i have two 1.5tb seagates from 2009, they still work fine as far as i can tell.
I'll never recommend a Seagate drive after mine started failing after only 2 years when I have WD drives that are almost a decade old and still run fine
Never had issues with Seagate. Guess I'm the lucky one

This is my 14 year old WD. [img]https://i.gyazo.com/9a36bd391a6adc85b6f98deb045ab5e6.png[/img]
