I see a lot of dead external drives. Tim once said they aren't built
for 24x7 use. So I'd either buy three and back up to all of them, or
possibly go with a good NAS box that will last longer.

16gb is very small these days. I would look for at least 1tb.

I am considering buying a 16GB Seagate External USB 3.2 drive for a backup
everything drive. This wouldn't be for critical important data which I back
up encrypted on a online google drive. But media takes up lots of bytes and
I never want to have to get a bigger drive.
How durable or Seagate drives these days...can I trust it with 16GB of
data?
