Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

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?

What, you don't do RAID-6 and carry around 5 external USB drives to move your data between locations? It's just so convenient. 🤣

Seriously, I don't get the raid comments at all.

Of course I don't carry 5 external drives with me all the time, that would be ridiculous.

I carry the whole HBA.
