According to a new report, hackers have exploited a 0-day bug, not the one discovered in 2018, to mass-wipe WD My Book Live Devices. It appears as though Western Digital intentionally removed lines of code that would have prevented it.

Storing your photos safely on hard drives is all well and good, but when you're looking at long-term storage then you need to look after the hard drives properly.

All of the drives we are using to store our precious photos and videos are not 100% reliable.
