My 980 2tb died due to the firmware and Samsung just refused to reply to any of my warranty requests.

So I refused to buy their drives, and have since spent about 1k on 16TB of WD drives.

We’re doing opposites here, ha. (And I’ve basically just happened to buy exactly what TheMadnessKing above is looking for, weird.)

Bought a 980 Pro for main PC OS (due to reviews of reliability and long warranty, did not see info about firmware problems). Along with T7 Shield 2TB for movie backups. And stopped buying WD after many years (due to my recent Passport failure and public SanDisk failures). Wish us both luck, may we backup all the things thrice.

Thanks for the rec. Given, we are in similar situations, I think they should be great

Will add them to my comparison list.
