    Over the last 20 years, through numerous computers, I have never had a WD that didn’t fail. Usually the ones that came with a computer. I also have helped numerous family and friends with their issues, often failing WD drives in cheap pre-built computers.

    I have never had a Seagate fail me, ever. I used to get SanDisk a lot too and their stuff always worked great. Not so much anymore. More recently it seems Samsung is the way to go. Just my experiences.
