Title says it all. Most of the stuff I had no backup for. It sucks but I’m trying to take it in stride. Time will tell if I actually needed any of that data or if I was just hoarding it with no actual use.

I’m still trying to recover the data with pros, and in any case I’ll find a cost-efficient way to keep backups from now (any suggestions? One drive? External SSD?)

Have any of you experienced this? How do you feel or how would you feel? Is this your worst nightmare? Let’s discuss

    Not necessarily. I’ve had enterprise SSD’s die that were under 1yr old with less than 100TB written.

    I also have HDD’s used in my surveillance system that have several petabytes written to them over the last 6yrs still going strong.

    I just moved the HDD I got in my first NAS (8TB WD Red) to its 4th home and it just turned 7 y/o.
