My wife has a way of destroying HDDs of any kind.
I put her on a cloud backup plan.It justified it’s use the last unexpected rebuild/replace.
All she does is Internet and some Word. Keeping 100 plus tabs between 3 browsers might be a factor. I am a lowlife Trump supporter and working IT guy so my opinion means nothing until something goes wrong.
My main PC is a few years old and I do 4k video editing and the like. Pretty much 0 hardware trouble.
Photos and video live in a cloud.
I have very little in terms of documents at all.
Thats good advice, Wally Bertjust to keep visuals in the cloud and not documents.
