Regardless of its name, the technology used in them is the same. From the way it stores track data in a chip after powerup, to the glass platters used in the disk. I suspect that the slower rpm models may be best, reliabilty-wise, but some have had the faster ones without trouble for years. Keeping them cool is always a good idea. The trouble often comes from power failures of any nature, along with shutdown before the hdd has written the data back to the disk needed for the next startup. This drive may well need a ups. Ok any drive can use a ups.
Some thoughts for ya.
