Working drives should be SSD based these days (IMHO). They are used for Archival purposes only for me. Price and capacity would be my only considerations. They're all (sans a few bad WD runs) decent drives. If I were going to buy right now, I'd get a Seagate or WD for home use (but I lean towards Seagate), although many people will only go with HGST.

I also have some Seagate/WD drives that are 20+ years old, and they work fine. I have the matching Hitachi drive (bought as a pair 18 years ago) still working fine (albeit slow due to old spec) in bay 2 right now. My most recent drive failure was a Hitachi drive. This issue was addressed by removing the 'Secure Empty Trash' option. Description: An issue existed in guaranteeing secure deletion of Trash files on some systems, such as those with flash storage.

I have searched online and found several options for software that claims to enable me to recover the files.

Impact: The 'Secure Empty Trash' feature may not securely delete files placed in the Trash. Question: Q: Recovery of files on a Mac after trash is emptied I accidentally deleted some files and emptied the trash on my MacBook Pro running macOS High Sierra v 10.13.6.

That said, I've had the least luck with Toshiba's, but consider that the very next poster may feel the same way about any other brand. Available for: Mac OS X v10.6.8 and later. This applies to any of the aforementioned brands. The odds are in your favor from the start, but you never know when that one bullet is going to get you. I'm pretty sure I read that Toshiba's market share was 5% (maybe $ not unit sales?), however, a recent Forbes article says the market share for WD, Seagate and Toshiba (in unit sales) is 40%, 37% and 23% respectively.īuying HD's (to me) is a little like playing Russian Roulette. Your best bet is to have one or more backups for your HDD's with some type of software that will keep the HDD's in sync (such as cloning software) and with a procedure that makes it as easy as possible to backup the drives regularly. In addition to Toshiba and WD, Seagate are the only remaining HDD manufacturers, which Toshiba having about 5% of the market.

(If I had to guess, I would say they probably have shopped the division around with nobody willing to give anything near a decent price or maybe it's somehow tightly integrated with their chip business, which a lot of people were interested in.) I don't know what effect that has had on the quality of their HDD's but as it is a mature business, I wouldn't expect that the division has had a lot invested in it recently. In addition, Toshiba has been undergoing a bit of turmoil for a few years now, courtesy of the Westinghouse Nuclear Power division that they bought. The last Toshiba HDD I had did not last as long as I expected (other HDD's I used for a similar purpose - storing audio files, have lasted years longer). For a time, they had to keep it running as a separate entity as Chinese regulators didn't allow a combination of operations but that restriction ended in 2015 so really a HGST drive is a WD drive. WD bought out the HGST (Hitachi's HDD business) back in 2012 (some of the 3.5" HDD manufacturing facilities were sold to Toshiba).
