Which part of external HDD will deteriorate?
Let's say I have an external HDD with 4 TB of data, and I store it in the shelf.
There is no dust going into it, or anything.
I take it out from the shelf after 10 years, will it work perfectly in theory?
If not, what part can deteriorate and why?

Nothing last forever, check its contents at least once a year and same with a backup
