Hello everyone !

Please when storing stuff on external HDD , is there any sort of " required maintenance" that must be ensured in order to preserve data ?

Exp : some suggest just plugging the drive once in a while , others suggest other methods to " re-magnetize " the sectors after a long period of storage.

Thanks for your time & I really appreciate your answers .
