SMART data on some old drives, can anyone beat my powered-on times?
12 years and 11 months of powered-on time for this SSD… I should definitely turn it on for another month lol
10 years powered-on time for this HDD. Who says HDDs aren’t reliable? 😂
Anyone got better numbers than these?

About a decade ago, I did some contract work for a local credit union upgrading some of their systems and one of their secondary servers had an old Maxtor drive that had over 31 years of uptime on it. It was wild because at the time, that drive had been running constantly longer than I had been alive.

Fuuuukkkk…
Longer uptime than you’d been alive!

That’s legit the only reason I still remember it. I had just turned 30 a few weeks beforehand, and it had at least a year and a few months on me.
