I have several Western Digital drives like this that are about 4-5 years old and they are doing fine. It is a good idea to plug them in every once in a while, there's a physical disc inside that spins, and it's good to spin it every couple of months.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I recently bought mine and a coworker has the same brand. He has used his for five years for his work laptop. He has replaced laptop twice during this time and used his backup to get his data back each time. So for sure these are durable to hold data for years down the road.
