Did they fail as in "some/all data lost", or did they switch to RO and you could at least get your data off them? Thinking of replacing my current home server HDs with SSD but worried about robustness...
The last one I could secure some but not all of the data before it completely failed. It failed gradually over the course of the day of me trying to rescue it. It was strange. Can't remember the previous ssd but the phone was flat out dead.
