WD writing fake reviews?
There's no way an actual human wrote such an extensive, detailed but overall dry of content as a review, unless they got it for free in exchange of an enthusiastic review
Edit: the article shows screenshots of clearly fake reviews on Amazon from "verified" buyers. This is what I'm referring to fake reviews

The article is pretty human written.
It’s the Amazon reviews in the article being talked about.

What the hell are you talking about? Consider reading the actual article before commenting something snarky. WD owns SanDisk, and this article is shitting all over them.Here's a short version if you can't be bothered: It's a follow-up to this article from May where they reported on a bug in SanDisk firmware that erased your data. WD claims to have fixed it with an update, but that appears to be false. The fact that these drives with a high failure rate are also being sold with a deep discount makes it seem like WD/SanDisk is just trying to get rid of defective hardware as quickly as possible while minimizing dollars lost, at the expense of your data.-
They were talking about the reviews featured in the article. Did you read it?

Ah, got it. Very unclear from your comment.

I wasn't the one writing the comment.

They clearly didn’t bother to read anything before replying.
