This particular product line is particularly endangered, since it's not a NAS or server-oriented model, nor is it too much bigger than the size of SATA SSDs currently on the market.
Sure, there is. Backups - not just of large files, but
any files you might want to recover a long time hence. Try the following:
- Copy some files onto a SSD and a hard disk.
- Disconnect them and place them in a drawer or on a shelf.
- Wait 5 years.
- Reconnect them and see which one is still readable.
If you're using a modern SSD (TLC or QLC), I'll bet you it's not going to be the SSD.
I accidentally conducted this experiment at work, when I connected a TLC SSD from a PC that had been unplugged for several years. The parts of the drive that hadn't been written since it was manufactured produced errors, when I tried to read them (I did the equivalent of a "surface scan"), and it was manufactured less than 5 years prior.
