    5 YR warranty Hsrd drives ???

    Im looking for a replacement for a hard drive that just died on me and i spent close to an hour looking and the only drives i could find with a 5 Yr warranty were enterprise class drives and they cost 2 or 3 times what a normal drive costs. Im looking for a drive that's 3 TB or larger 7200 RPM would be nice. Back 5 or 6 years ago I purchased Three 3 TB Seagate drives and 2 of them are still going strong that came with a 5 year warranty. I had no idea that every manufacture went to a 1,2 or 3 yr Warranty. when you have Terabytes of data you want it to last for a while and not be hassled with replacing a drive.

    I can tell you this
    I heard some SSDs can take over 100TB+ over reading and writing before dying
    GET AN SSD

    A 3TB or larger SSD will really cost a bit of change. im trying to keep the price down, yet not have to replace it every year or two.
