With statistics behavior of more than 34 thousand exploited hard drives, BackBlaze company periodically tries to draw some conclusions about their durability . At this time, obtained data to evaluate the effect of temperature on the longevity of the drive operation mode.
Comparing data on nearly two dozen models of drives, BackBlaze revealed typical operating temperature ranges: green model with low power heated slightly above 20 degrees Celsius and more efficient models can heat up to 25-30 degrees Celsius. All involved in the study of hard drives are operated in special racks, providing adequate ventilation, air conditioning rooms. Manufacturers usually claim that limiting temperature hard disk is 60 degrees Celsius.
After processing the data, the authors of the study concluded that a significant relationship between temperature and longevity of hard drives is not.
However, it's more like an exception to the rule. If the temperature of your hard drive remains within acceptable limits, then worry about their reliability should not be. Most likely, the fatal significance will be from some other factors. Related Products :
