Is the Seagate SRD0NF1 (4TB) really that bad? (zerobytes.monster)

Hello folks, to make it short, I bought this HDD off eBay for a few bucks and it‘s fully functional, checked S.M.A.R.T Status and it also has not many hours of usage on the clock.

Built year is 2018, it‘s supposed as a Backup Drive. It won‘t be connected 99.99% of times.

I do have had some Seagate drives in the past and I‘ve never experienced a failed HDD in my life, but read several negative comments on Reddit regarding this drive. Even my oldest cheap a$$ drive I bought as a child is fully functional.

Should I be concered? Apparently this drive is working fine since 2018 already…

Thanks!
