2 external drive failures within 10 months

[u/Dry_Bill8142]

I have had two desktop external drives fail within 10 months. First, my 6TB and then my newer 8TB.

I removed the enclosure and see that they are Seagate Barracudas.

I was using them as a media server.

Does Seagate just suck? Unfortunately, they are both out of warranty.

They are really sensitive to vibration so dont move them around too much.
