Sleeping with computer on downloading some torrents to this hard drive

I open up CrystalDiskInfo and see this on the drive that got disconnected. What does the yellow mean on the "Current Pending Sector Count"? Is it bad?

It means backup and buy a new drive

Already backed up as soon as I saw this. damn I have to cash out my BTC to buy new HDD.

How reliable are these 12 TB HDDs?

it's a side effect of being an anime posting weeabo. the NSA has weeabo detection and filtration on all ISPs that block torrents by issuing a hard drive disconnect command remotely

amazing how anime makes everything better

These are NAS-tier drives so they should be fairly reliable, but

back to where you came from if you don't accept that

>buying NAS disks
>buying a 12TB disk instead of building a redudant storage array
Consider suicide.

In all honesty, I know you might think the whole "Seagate is bad" is a meme, but don't buy this shit.
I've been running a home seedbox for the past 3 years, and all my Seagate drives ended up dead, whereas the WD ones are still working just fine at the moment.
Better spend 50 bucks more than losing all of your data.

I've only had 2 seagates fail on me, both Barracudas that I ran into the ground over 4+ years. The Ironwolves I have show no sighs of stopping. I also have horror-tier 3tb seagates that are still alive. It's all luck of the draw.

Plus new-stock Seagates are a hell of a lot more reliable than they used to be. According to memeblaze WD has equal or higher failure rates now.

That said HGST is best tier.

In all honesty, I know you might think the whole "Western Digital is bad" is a meme, but don't buy this shit.
I've been running a home seedbox for the past 3 years, and all my Western Digital drives ended up dead, whereas the SG ones are still working just fine at the moment.

Anyone building RAID 6 arrays and other bullshit at home I generally consider functionally retarded.

RAID is meant for constant uninterrupted up-time. Your hentai and porn collection doesn't need 24/7/365 up time, if it goes down for 2-3 hours in the middle of the night, no one will care.

it's FAR cheaper and easier to just keep offline disk images laying around.

If a drive goes offline, go pickup the backup and put it online. You've had maybe 20-30 mins of downtime, but no data was lost, and you're not having to wait 20 hours to rebuild your shitty array.

RAID has it's place, but a home NAS is not it.

It means nothing, hard drives tend to go retarded when they miss a single read/write cycle

Snapraid is pretty worth for static media collections, if only for bit-rot/silent error protection.

This. I had a 3TB Seagate fail on me after 3 years, and I have a 5 year old Hitachi that I took in my backpack in the train every week for 2 years which still run fine.

So, if you have a NAS with 4 disks, what configuration would you put them in?

Protip: Set language to japanese. Then you can click on the girl to hear her opinion about the disk, rather than a useless jingle.

>3TB Seagate
>older than 2016
Of course it failed.

>うん!このディスクは問題ありません!
Cute.

The WD reds have been good to me, I've had them running none stop for the past 3 years.

My seagate had a good life
