Which part of external HDD will deteriorate?
  • In theory, it should work perfectly.

    Some old, old drives had a problem where the spindle wouldn't spin, a phenomenon known as "stiction." Drives made in the last -- maybe -- 15 years seem to be immune.

    One other remotely possible issue would be "bit rot." That's where the magnetic polarity of a single bit could change over time, often being influenced by neighboring bits.
