And it took quite a lot of data with it, too. RIP, you crazy WD Black2.

My Seagate 1TB SSHD decided to dismount itself a few minutes ago. I had to reboot the computer twice to get it to come back. Time to start hard drive shopping, I guess.

Learned the hard way too. Hard drives don’t always fail gracefully — if there’s something you don’t want to lose, make sure it’s backed up somewhere.

Finally? Aren’t those Black2 drives relatively new?

I bought my Black2 around Q3/Q4 2014 - and it survived hell until now.

I’ve really read nothing but awful things about those hybrid drives, regardless of manufacturer. I’m amazed yours lasted as long as it did.

I have zero faith in those hybrid drives. I would never put on in my own computer. Ever.

This is where I hypocritically tell you that you should be backing up your data more often.
