Thoughts on using drives manufactured some years ago? Is there greater risk of data corruption/loss vs. using drives manufactured in the past 12 months?

I received two drives recently:

  • Sandisk 1 TB portable SSD (2021)
  • WD 16 TB external HDD (2022)

Should I return and get something manufactured more recently?
