I’ll tell you what though, i still have that 200gb WD. It still works. Chucked it under disk tools and ran some deep diags for shits and giggles, no errors found. 24 years old (ditto with an ancient 20gb toshiba that runs the head for a nas). Ya just can’t kill them. I have quantum fireballs in a DOS box that are still trucking

Lol i remember spending $300 on 200gb hdds. And i got a discount since some buddies and i pooled to get a batch together
It was an exciting time when we finally passed the $1/GB mark.
Those were the days my friend…
