TLDR: Download your content offline before it gets lost forever.

From now on you should never trust online hosting, I started seeing a lot of piracy sources( Streaming websites, torrent indexes,… Etc) get shut down.

So I highly recommend for all pirates to download anything they want offline to reuse and don’t trust keeping it online, sadly for me, a lot of material had been lost as there is almost no online service or piracy service has it( I am talking about material that is 5-10 years old.).

I know that this is not the first time piracy websites/hosts gets taken down but this time feels different as it became aggressive and I feel that in the next months a considerable amount of content are going to be lost.

    In a sense. They’re also fancy-pants enterprise drives rated to be able to last over a million hours.

    Drive failures follow the old “bathtub curve”. You get the lemons that fail when they’re brand new – that’s one side of the curve. Then for several years, they fail at a consistently low rate. Then once they start getting really old, the failure rate goes up – giving you the other side of the curve.

    True, these are probably closer to the “old age” side of the bathtub curve. But GHD is pretty good about honoring their warranty. Back stuff up and you should be fine.
