This poor laptop drive was serving me well as a jank storage pool on my Nas for almost 8 years now and today it died.

16 years old? Nice

I have a 2006 drive that's still chugging along. IDE at that, haha

Where did you get 16 years from? The drive says date of manufacture as 2012. 12 years is still a pretty good run for a laptop spinner though.
