  1.  @danteerskine7678  I call BS on your claim, they ALL die, Period. I've had old fashioned hard drives fail, yes, but not after at least several years of in some cases, a hard life in IT, in another case a DECADE of heavy read use (OS and programs), only to loose sectors and corrupting the OS badly. The computer was getting long legged anyway, and had plenty of other parts like the motherboard replaced over its lifespan, the original WD blue finally died 10 years in. One or 2 of the not quite as old, but from IT drives failed to be recognized by the OS. I have had a thumb drive die from mostly a lack of use over time, an SD card fail eventually (it was an Adata class 4 drive for my Nikon D90 DSLR. I have 2 and the second one still works). The point that Leo is saying here is, no matter the drive, most will last between 3-3 years on average but many will last at least a decade, often with many reads and writes and that you are best to backup everything.
