It's a sad day for me. I lost 1.5gb of data. My study materials, my VM's. There was no indication that hdd is gonna die. No bad sectors, health was good.
This is the limit of the hdd.
@puns please delete this post. Wrong thread.

If the data was that important it should have been on cloud : Going forward... :)

It was on cloud only. I thought of keeping a physical copy as cloud price was getting high. Then this happened

Cloud price is bound to go up for sure. IMO it is better to pay for cloud for critical data as compared to pay for mechanical disks now.

Right now I'm thinking of keeping my data in ssd. I guess flash should be much more reliable than the hdd
