More specifically, if the same data is saved to two identical SSDs at the same time and they are stored in the same place for the same amount of time, will the data loss/corruption of files between them be identical? Like, if you were to check on both SSDs after a few years in cold storage, will the files lost on one drive be the exact same files that are lost on the other drive or is the data loss more variable/random than that?
