All can if used properly (not knocked, no power shortages, kept a good temperature etc) but in my experience, any hard drive can die at any time, regardless of how new or old it is - although this is rare. Personally I'd just go for the higher-end drives like Seagate, they should last as long as you want if you don't mistreat them.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
