Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

    Let’s see you bring your raid NAS on an out of country video shoot.

    Edit: Misread the comment. My reply isn’t addressing the actual point he made.

      God you guys are all dense.

      When did I say a NAS was the correct solution here? I’m just pointing out that I’m not absolved from poor data storage practices. But that I’m only doing it becauss I don’t care about the data.

      The verge should know better, and including anything about their lost data in this shows they have no journalistic integrity. Reports the news, with proof that WD didn’t fix the issue. Don’t report that you suck at training your employees.

        I get your point now. It really does sound like you were suggesting that they should’ve used a NAS instead at first read. Maybe a clearer paragraph structure would’ve helped you get your point across easier.
