The New Bathtub Curve - Backblaze Drive Stats Data Analysis

Описание: Analysis from 13 years of hard drive failure data.

The traditional “bathtub curve” has long shaped how we think about drive failures: high early defects, a stable middle life, then a wear-out period. But 13 years of Drive Stats data and three different bathtub curve analyses in 2013, 2021, and 2025 challenge that view. In this webinar, we’ll explore how real-world drive failure trends are shifting. Join us to dive into both how we ran the numbers, and what it means for the state of storage more broadly.
