Right... You basically need to move data too to newer format.. Ill stay with my HDDs ;) (for now).

For hard drives that are powered off for a long time "stiction" is a real concern. Yes I know, parked heads and all that, but powered off HDs for many years with varying temps/humidity gives my nether region a pucker thinking of the data loss

  Yeah.. I store them at home, so temp is 23-28 deg. Usually in those plastic little boxes there were sold in. I know they will eventually fail. I just do NOT have cheap reliable option to store backups. Those disks are leftover of upgrades, like.. 20GB, 120GB, 320GB, 1TB :) Some are reused in cheap USB ext cases that have IDE/SATA connectors.
