It’s definitely out of warranty by now. Think it was bought around 2018 from Costco. I don’t believe the drive has been dropped but it has been moved several times.

Yes, it’s an external drive. Specifically WD MyBook

YT search is completely broken. It used to be that the first 3-4 videos were relevant and the rest were YT shorts or stuff you previously watched. Now, not even the first result is related to what I search for. I have to use Google in order to get the video I actually want. Even incognito in YT doesn’t help much nowadays.
