What the fuck are all these comments?
It's an article about an unresolved and recurring problem with a popular drive that the ostensibly reputable manufacturer is trying to hide.
But 90% of the comments are people jerking themselves off about how smart they are for using RAID, which is irrelevant to the point of the article... But never miss an opportunity to pleasure yourself in public I guess?
Then the article title should be less click bait termed and properly address that there's a major firmware fault in the drives.
Journalism is lost on generating clicks and user turmoil rather than servicing the public in any way.
The article does exactly that.
Or read the article instead of just the headline.
I read the article, it's also shit and fails to properly talk about the issue instead of ranting about data loss.
Or maybe people should actually read articles first instead of commenting based off just reading the “click bait“ headline?
are we not allowed to comment on the meta of the article as well as the substance of the article? i guess we need to stop complaining about paywalls and excessive inline ads too then
Yeah, because that’s exactly what I said, clearly. 🙄
