Backup drives

[mtbc]

I have mentioned I/O errors with the set of USB external drives that I use for backups. With a change of operating system and (again) cables our backups have been running rather better. I have given the drives a second chance but when a drive exhibits a reproducible I/O error I remove it from the rotation. The only drive I have had to put aside is one of the Seagates that I previously returned under the manufacturer's warranty. Perhaps they repaired or replaced it rather less effectively than I had hoped. All the Western Digital drives are now working fine.
