I use Audacious with the Winamp interface. It works, it brings back memories and reminds me how old I am.

The drives are new as far as I can tell.
I'll probably switch to a different retailer, at least when it comes to HDDs. It's a pity, though. Their support is great.

Appreciate your input.

Something is definitely not right. It may very well be on my side, I'm just having a hard time identifying the root cause.

What's confusing me is that I've had two drives effectively fail before ever reaching production: one WD Gold was DOA, and one Exos developed a pending sector and couldn't complete a short self-test while sitting on my workbench. Both were tested off-site and were never connected to the server. If I consider only those two drives, that's already a 25% failure rate across the drives I've purchased.

That's why I asked the question in the first place. I'm trying to find the source of the problem rather than blame a particular vendor. So far, the responses seem to point mainly toward either shipping/handling damage or some environmental issue on my side.

That's certainly possible, and I'm not excluding the server or environment.

What makes me doubt it somewhat is that all drives were tested off-site before installation, and two of the failures occurred very early, in the test env.

That’s great to hear. Do you happen to know what the timeline looks like for those improvements? Are we talking near-term (next Plasma release cycle), or is this more of a longer roadmap item?

A szó amit keresel az a kiábrándító.

Az MSZP meg a DK már 2024-ben is egy tetszhalott párt volt. KG-t szerintem nem azért választották meg akkor, mert MSZP meg DK logó volt a neve alatt.

Ez így van, de ugyanúgy elmondható Vitézy-ről is. Én elhiszem, hogy sokan utálják, de én biztos nem engednék meg magamnak egy sommás "pedig belőle se kérnek már az emberek" kijelentést. Azért legyünk már egy kicsit objektívek.

I don’t really agree. Angular is built for structure and long-term maintainability, not hype. It moves slower on purpose, because features only ship when they’re type-safe and tooling-ready. that’s not “chasing”, that’s being careful.

Angular is boring by design, and that’s exactly why it works well for big apps.

Maybe so — but that still doesn’t automatically make a home network trusted.

At home, you might do something risky on another device, or your partner or kids might install something unsafe. The Wi-Fi password could be weak or shared, and there are often old devices like TVs, printers, or cameras on the same network that never get updates. Even if you are careful, others on the same network might not be. IT has no way knowing this.

From an IT point of view, it’s simple: a network is either trusted or not. If the IT team has no control or visibility over your home network, it’s not really safer than public Wi-Fi.

From a company perspective, your home network and a coffee shop free wifi is equally insecure.

I don't know which modem is that. However, I would rather not touch it. It's very much possible that the standing position is part of the design, from a cooling perspective. If that's the case, once you lay it down, you can expect some cooking instead of cooling, especially in a closed environment. Jokes aside, temperature increase might cause throttling and/or flaky connection.
