TL;DR HDD is dying, need a solution to transfer the data to another drive
In march 2021, I bought a 8TB Seagate Barracuda Compute on amazon, the drive was delivery in a shitty state (not even boxed) but functional.
Yesterday the drive is now giving the last breath, sometimes pc pc can only go past post if the drive isn’t installed, had to buy an SSD (Samsung 870 QVO) that will only be delivered in December
Now I’m just waiting to get the SSD so I can (hopefully) transfer everything from the HDD to the SSD

…Or restore from your backup. You do have a backup, right?
Oh you don’t? Well, your new plan to purchase multiple drives and not just one drive is so that you’ll fix that you don’t have a backup, right?
