Looking at a chart of annualized failure rates over time and by manufacturer, it might appear that much of the overall rise over the past year has been driven by Seagate and Toshiba models. Yes, it's true: Hard drive failures creep up as disks age.Backblaze thinks SSDs are more reliable than hard drives.New SI prefixes clear the way for quettabytes of storage.Barge off: Nautilus to bring floating datacenters to two new sites in US, France.This increase as a drive model ages follows the bathtub curve, whereby a typical drive can be expected to exhibit a rash of early failures, followed by a period when there are relatively few, followed by an uptick once more as all the drives approach the end of their lives and wear out.
