Bought from goHardDrive. I’ve already had a drive fail and require replacement, and that was with pretty much no use. It just failed on a smart test. The same drive, maybe, has already failed again. I’m going to nag em because of the warranty, but it’s pretty worrying. Like, I’m sure failing a scrub isn’t the end of the world, but it’s also not a good thing, right?
I have some that were bought in May of 2021. They are HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 4TB 64MB Cache 7200RPM
I bought 12, ran a full burn in with bad blocks, long and short tests ran then for 3 months with data then cleared the old pool. They are in a RaidZ3 and are still working fine.
