How old are the drives ?
How much handling, travel, etc have they gone through ?
How many times have they been reused, ie delete files, load new etc. ?

We chuck out HDD's from engineer laptops at about 3 years because they have a rough life in cars and on site premises. They do not last forever and a clean up and reformat is good practice for USB HDD's.
