I've seen another thread where one person had these drives in service for 12 years.. I have a pair of the 2TB ones coming up to 14 years in the next few weeks, best damn drives ive ever had, not the fastest but I've not had ones that have lasted as solidly in a RAID1 set for as long as these two have, I have considered swapping these out for bigger disks, I dont have anything on them that i dont have backed up elsewhere so its now a test to see how many years these things last, they may yet outlive me or the NAS that they are in.

Anyone else still rocking these pre Samsung peaks of Korean engineering?
