Hahaha, WD has been garbage forever. What reputation?
I stopped buying WD ages ago. I was looking at SD stuff awhile ago not knowing about the sale to WD and decided against it.
Dodged that bullet when I found out
People still buy Seagate even though there has been a track record of massive failures on their HDDs since the early 00’s. Didn’t matter, people associated it with gaming. WD used to have good quality. There was a bit of a scandal some years ago with their red series when they quietly went to SMR. I have some WD blacks (I think, unsure if they did the color thing at that time) from like '07 that still work reliably. So in the over 20 years I’ve been building computers, when did ‘forever’ start?
Over the last 20 years, through numerous computers, I have never had a WD that didn’t fail. Usually the ones that came with a computer. I also have helped numerous family and friends with their issues, often failing WD drives in cheap pre-built computers.
I have never had a Seagate fail me, ever. I used to get SanDisk a lot too and their stuff always worked great. Not so much anymore. More recently it seems Samsung is the way to go. Just my experiences.
SanDisk had a good name before the acquisition. Their reputation is lasting, unfortunately, longer than their products now.
They had some reputation left to ruin?
