20TB+ drives just crossed a quarter of our fleet.
Manufacturers are already roadmapping 40TB now, 100TB by 2029—and getting there means changing how drives physically write data. We cover how, and what it means for reliability reporting, in this post. hubs.ly/Q04z_07F0

Every zero/one-failure drive model this quarter was a Seagate.
One good quarter isn't a verdict on a manufacturer — but it's a clean one worth flagging. Watching next quarter before we call it a trend.

Our 10TB Seagate posted a 9.33% AFR this quarter.
Sounds alarming until you see the count: 22 failures out of 965 drives. Small population, big-looking percentage. This is why we publish raw counts, not just rates.

The quarterly AFR jumped to 1.73%. Our lifetime AFR moved 0.02 points.
Same drives. Same quarter. That's the difference between "a number swung" and "something actually changed" — and why lifetime AFR is the one to trust.
