Hey folks,
I thought a saw a thread on something like this but I can't seem to
find it
so I figure I might as well ask and see what turns up.
The scenario:
I use a hard drive to mirror my main hard drive. I then pull the
alternate
hard drive off the system and store it for later use should the
primary
drive fail, or the system as a whole fails.
How long can the hard drive sit on the shelf before some sort of
natural
cause that prevents it from spinning up properly?
How long are you storing them for? I would think that the data on
the disk would quickly become out of date and stale before any
physical issues would arise.
