1) SSDs and flash memory need to be refreshed (rewriting all the same files) at intervals of 1 year or more to keep the data intact and free from corruption and bitrot.
Do 2.5" and 3.5" HDDs also have this problem? Even if the drive is in good health, if the data was written many years ago, are they at risk of corruption, loss of magnetism, bitrot, and other problems?
generally i acess energize my drives 1 once year more no nothiting write
2) Do 2.5" HDDs for long-term storage require specific, perfect conditions of 50% humidity and 25°C? Is oxidation and corrosion possible above that?
In My home varies in 24h 33-38C 55-66%
