Every time seagate comes out with a new line of drives we buy them at work to try, and about one year later we are sorry. HGST and WD only if you want your stuff to last. Will other brands have failures? Sure, but not like clockwork. I have been running servers with Toshiba, HGST, and mostly WD drives since 250GB was the biggest drive you could get. Every year or so I go to the next reliable size. I would never put a seagate in anything I build or fix after seeing literally thousands of them fail.
I am not sure saying we should throw out decades of experience makes any sense, should we forget they suck every year? They did not just have one series of drives that sucked, they have had numerous generations of garbage drives that only last about a year over many decades. Other drives have had series that were unreliable, but not 90% of what they have made like seagate.
Sorry for the kinda rant, just don't understand the "they are better now with this newest generation" seagate posts I have been seeing for 10+ years and also don't understand why those same people say we need to get over decades of failures. Until we have at least 5 years of them not sucking they will remain the crap of the harddrive world. I have seen too much pain caused by seagate to give them the benefit of the doubt every time they come out with new crap.

Not saying to not go for this if you like the price, but keep in mind that WD might be a little better off if you intend on putting the drive through its paces
