They have a history of tech misreporting. It's not new news.

When you get a bunch of tech illiterate people to write tech articles, you get a bunch of garbage reporting. Including this. They haven't back up their claims. No actual analysis of the failure point of the drives. They don't show any proof that their 2 drive failures are even related other than they're the same drive model. And even then, they didn't include the exact sku

I said I couldn't care about the data, which is the only reason why I'm running a striped pool

Correct. My next build will be redundant but given that my truenas pool is only storing movies, shows, music and porn, I don't much care if I lose the contents due to a drive failure

Given the verges track record on tech reporting, i wouldn't put faith in their journalistic integrity of a hit piece unless they show a bit more than "look, i lost a drive after they said they fixed the issue. They're lying!"

"I put 3TB of irreplaceable data on a single drive, and want to blame anyone but myself for my data loss"

Go away with this garbage.

I personally have a NAS with 12TB striped over 3 drives, I sure wouldn't blame WD if one drive failed and I lost everything.

E: this whole comment section is why tech illiterate people shouldn't really comment on hardware failures like this. The only fact that is know is that the verge faced 2 drive failures and lost 3TB of data due to a lack of safe data storage practices. If they were tech literate they wouldn't have lost any data.

The verge did not confirm the mode of failure, and therefore the second failure could've been completely unrelated to the firmware issue. Nobody knows anything, other than the verge needs to educate themselves on how to properly store irreplaceable data.

I don't care if something is open source or not.

People say it like it's the holy grail, and it's really not.

I don't care if something is open source or not.

People say it like it's the holy grail, and it's really not.

As said, better client support.

I really don't care if something is open source or not. I care if it has a reasonable price, reasonable feature set, and reasonable support. People say it like it's the holy grail, when it's not.
