165,888,000 bits / 8 bits/byte = 20,736,000 bytes
Not if you have a proper backup plan.
I have about 200ish TB or about 24 drives and 3 of them failed all are used. I have a solid backup plan so no issues with failing drives. Saves me roughly 100-200 a drive.
New drives have infant mortality as well. An inverse bell curve would be the distribution.
