12 years and 11 months of powered-on time for this SSD… I should definitely turn it on for another month lol

10 years powered-on time for this HDD. Who says HDDs aren’t reliable? 😂

Anyone got better numbers than these?

    Right on. One of the first computer parts I ever owned personally was a 40GB Maxtor drive, right before or around the time Seagate bought them. I can’t remember how it happened, but at some point the raw drive was dropped down a flight of stairs. Worked just fine for several more years before finally failing.
