This is the first I've heard of this… Is there something I don't know about spinning disks? I thought SSDs were basically better in almost every way compared to spinning disks?
Like if I had to choose between a low end 1TB SSD and a high end 1TB HDD for the same price I'd go crap tier SSD every day.
I'd thought the reason HDDs were still in the market was because you could get huge drives much more inexpensively (16TB for $300 @ $18.75/TB for example).
Sorry maybe I'm missing something it's been a long day.
SSD drive should not be relied on in very hot environments, especially without being powered and can have some data loss.
SSD has limited write cycles and should not be used in high write environments, like a DVR.
SSD can be used in a NAS as cache drive but it should be treated as a consumable and you should keep an eye on the write life cycle.
SSD is good for a day to day computer. It is much more reliable for catastrophic failure and mechanical failure but it is not as good for securing your data long term. Mechanical drives absolutely still have a use, even at the same price.

Obviously, that's survivor bias, but I've had ridiculously good luck with them.

This drive would be ideal for breathing some life into an older laptop while providing plenty of space for games and videos.
