I dont blame computers, but when employees at Mcdonalds wont sell you lunch because their register crashed, we got serious problems.

And if the total is 11.24, don't give them 21.25...

How about making up a poll if not already done in the past

Have you ever had a hard drive die and if so did it fail in less than 3 years?

backblaze.com

I wonder if failure rates of drives relate to users continuing to upgrade their computer and or hard drives more often today than in years past?

Also, are drives failing more often with users who are also gamers?

As I said earlier I have never had a hard drive die, Crash many times yes! mainly due to operator stupidity

Thanks
Don
