My Western Digitial external hard drive that I used solely for back-up just died after only having it for a few months. I'm pretty pissed.

From what I've read online it's best to only plug the thing in when you're going to back-up files. Apparently leaving it running all the time is the fastest way to kill it. Next one I buy I'll be sure to only use when backing stuff up.
