Seagate Skyhawk vs WD Purple

[Nomen Nesico]

WD Purple here because had problems with older Seagate drives many years ago and probably ok now but the past failures has put me off a little.

Just curious but were the older Seagate drives that failed you years ago surveillance drives also?

Maybe we need to go back up to 5.25" specifications from Win 3.1 days. LOL then they can get more TB's without shingled magnetic recording. View attachment 88614

Boy, I miss those days in high school and college. The 5.25" 500MB hard drives and floppy diskettes, as well as the slick 3.5" floppies, and that box of 3M 5.25" floppies with a free EA 688 Attack Sub floppy game disk. LOL.
