I have a 9 year old 500GB seagate HDD that is fine and has always worked perfectly.
Lifetime Bytes Read: 1.86 TB
Lifetime Bytes Written: 898.32 GB
Power-On Hours: 25461
SMART suggests its in fine condition, but google says that SMART can't be relied upon.
Is there a reliable way to find the health of the HDD ? I just don't want to surprised by a dead HDD any morning.
btw how common are such old working hard disks ? Anyone has anything older ? with more power on hours ?
