Do hard drives go bad if not used?..

Answer / Yagya Dutt Singh

Modern hard drives (HDDs and SSDs) do not degrade simply due to age when they are not in use. However, it is still recommended to periodically back up data to protect against potential physical damage or unexpected failure. It's also a good idea to keep the drive powered on occasionally to maintain its health.
