The most common failure mode of drives is bearing failure.
Hmm, weird. I haven't had a bearing failure since I was using 5.25" MFM and RLL drives in the PC-AT days. My hard disk failures have all been head crashes, gradual bit rot, or controller failures. I haven't had an IDE, SCSI, or SATA drive yet that failed by not spinning up.
