I have a disk for local backups (that is the only purpose of that disk). I was wondering what would make it last longer:
- Keep it mounted to my server permanently (current solution)
- Keep it unmounted most of the time, mount it when I’m going to do a backup (either daily or every 3 days, I don’t mind changing that) and unmounting after the backup is done.
What would be the best strategy?

Longer lasting I think; leave it powered on and warm.
Best in reality; buy 3 drives, and after you do a backup move one off site.
