My advice is expect them to die, and
frequently. Most I've gotten out of one is just under 2 years,
most 4mo-1yr.
I do things like raid (because they *do* die), crypto, and lvm on
them, but spend careful time to align things, yet they still die.
OK, the hard drive on my windows box is getting old, and every now
and then during startup, I hear a short burst of chattering..no
such problem on my Linux laptop, but it does not get as much use, either...
I want to replace my aging hard drive with a solid state unit.
Suggestions?
Evo850 by Samsung is the winner for me. They are fast. Cheap. And come with
a 5 year warranty.

I have a directory/folder that contains several
dozen image files, all with different file dates.
How can I create a script that would display all
those files in date sequence from newest to oldest?

Thanks Bob ... but that only lists the files.
Guess I did not explain my question clearly enough.
I should have asked: How can I create a script that
would display the images that those files represent
(not just list the files) in date sequence from newest
to oldest?

Bob
for filename in $(ls -lt) ; do display-image $filename ; done
replace display-image with your preferred image display tool.
Alternatively, most image utilities (e.g. gthumb) offer the option to sort by
date and many can run a slideshow of the images in current sort order.
