Nice! They were definitely killing it back then.
I have a 2TB WD Red from iirc 2013 or 2014 working as my downloads drive. 28,125h (3y 2m). Most of that power on time is in the last year and a half. 0 errors.
I also have a WD Black 1TB from 2009 that has been in gaming PCs, media servers, in an enclosure as an external drive and in my Unraid box. I ran out of ports on my HBA so this grandpa is sitting in a drawer right now, but the power on has to be over 5y. I’ll try to check later.
