I’ve never had a problem with Kingston, been using the same 1GB drive for over 15 years now and still works perfectly as my live Linux setup. Bought another 64GB one few years back as well.

I also have an over 10 years old Seagate (I guess Samsung now?) 500GB HDD that has been through a couple enclosures but still works perfectly.

I wouldn’t deviate from those 2 brands.

I would argue that you don’t need any non-exotic scout rifles at all these days, or primaries in general.

I do have about 30 different shotguns that I never use though.
