The older WD drives did use to last longer, but more than a decade is well past most drives' expected lifetime. I've used a number of ancient WD drives - a box full of 290Mb drives, plus 10 x 1Gb - I think I managed about about 2-3 years useful life after I bought them second-hand. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- http://www.spamchek.com/freetrial - managed anti-spam and anti-virus solution.
