Everyone has an opinion on WD vs Seagate drives, but I use data on 250,000 drives to track progress and failure rates over 10 years to discover which drives are actually the best.

Thank you to BackBlaze for publicly sharing their data. Link to their data source here : https://www.backblaze.com/cloudstora...

And thank you all for the support and comments, and I am sure this video will create much debate on experiences people had with these manufacturers.
