The received wisdom, I thought, (for some) has been a stored HDD is better very long term than relying on DVD and CDs. I have never heard of such a loss of data. Tapes have a very good history for archival storage but can you please qualify what say about the loss of data in leaving a hard drive on the shelf. Drives just are not a good long term solution for that sort of storage. if you put something on a hard drive turn the drive off and leave it sit on as shelf for about a year you can expect to lose some data maybe all of it. I have not used WD external drives but I have used Maxtor and a few different self built ones and I love external harddrives for their ability to leave lots of data accessible, unlike DVD's that require too much feeding and harddrives are much faster BUT.
