Most hard disk drives (HDD) last between three and five years before some component fails. That doesnât always mean the drive is irrecoverably busted, but three to five years is still about how long they last, whether youâre talking about an internal drive for a server or desktop, or an external hard disk drive.
by Leo A. Notenboom, Â© 2006. I just installed two external Firewire hard drive cases with two hard drives. When I shut off my system the drives keep running and they don't power down when my PC is on after 15 minutes-the setting I use for turning the hard drives off.Is this normal for a Firewire external drive or is there something I need to do to get them to power down.I can shut them off when not in use but it would be more convenient if they just turned off according to my power schedule.s this normal for a Firewire external drive or is there something I need to do to get them to power down.
