I have heard that hard drives last on average about 5 years. I have a 1TB backup drive (internal) with all my important files on it that are stored nowhere else.
Obviously, hard drives DO fail. And when mine does, my data is screwed. Now, the obvious solution is to back up my stuff somewhere else. But where? Another drive?
No, another drive would just fail again. Do you see where I am going with this? This means that my data will only last for another 4-6 years. Is there anything I can do to stop it?
