How are datacenters not "the real world"? They're the largest users of data storage devices!

According to this http://www.kitguru.net/components/hard-drives/anton-shilov/s... 125 milllion HDD shipped in Q1 2015.

Anyone has any idea on how many in Desktop, laptop vs Data Center?

Largest single users of drives, sure. When they have tens of millions of them, I'd trust their reliability studies a lot more than Aunt Mike who has maybe two or three.
