As someone who's always disliked Seagate based more on vibes than actual facts, I feel so vindicated right now
I'm at work so I'm sorry for not being able to provide a source, but there's a website that tracks hard drive failure rates and Seagate is consistently one of the worst brands. So there's some extra facts for you.
It wasn't them as a company right? it was a few resellers that decided to buy a shady lot of drives for resale. As in not buy from Sagate, but buy from somebody saying hey I got a ton of drives for cheap you can unload
If Ford is the only company with an odometer rollback problem, blame Ford, not the used car dealers.
