I've broken two 1TB hard drives before, and there are omens before they go bad, so at least I can have time to transfer the data. But this time, the damaged hard disk suddenly clicks during normal operation. After rebooting, it is found that the hard disk can not be recognized in the bios, and the motor will stop automatically after a few seconds of power up. Asked several data recovery agencies, the answer is that the head is damaged, the recovery of data costs at least 3000 kilowatts, because this hard disk is full of video material, the success rate of recovery is relatively low, after repeated consideration, I have to accept the fact of data loss.

Because I trust the monitor-level hard disk too much, I think its stability will be better than the ordinary desktop-level hard disk. As a result, it suddenly broke down in less than two years, which is worse than the broken desktop-level hard disk before. There are rumors on the network that the monitoring hard disk is not suitable to be a warehouse data disk. It seems to be groundless.

This data loss taught me a lesson: data must be backed up regularly with an offline hard disk, a hard disk that is always powered on, even if the environment is stable, it is difficult to guarantee the uncertain life of the hard disk head.

2017-11-23 add: there are many examples of sudden death of ST3000DM001 hard drives on the Internet, similar to the case of this ST2000VX000, it is suspected that they are using the same batch of head components.
