Here’s another question that came out of my recent trip to the UK:
IT Nerd. You’ve made a very big deal of having to have your hard drive replaced multiple times. So, how did the hard drive that you bought work for you? I am assuming that it was fine as you didn’t go on a rant about it failing. But I figured that I ask.
Thanks for the question. First, let me address the rant part. If you’ve gone through what I’ve gone through recently with recent run of bad luck with hard drives in my MacBook Pro, you’d rant too. It’s very frustrating if you rely on your computer like I do. Having said that, the Western Digital Black hard drive that I put in had no issues. Now I will admit that I did back up every night I was in the UK as I was expecting something bad to happen seeing as I was lugging my MacBook Pro through airports, subjecting it to security checkpoints, and using it in a variety of locations. But nothing bad happened. That seems to point towards Apple having a serious quality issue with the hard drives that they use. I will continue to monitor it and report back in less than 90 days about where things sit on this front.
