As someone who's always disliked Seagate based more on vibes than actual facts, I feel so vindicated right now

I'm at work so I'm sorry for not being able to provide a source, but there's a website that tracks hard drive failure rates and Seagate is consistently one of the worst brands. So there's some extra facts for you.

Would love to see that site if you can post it later!
