Op is not saying that 100% of the data is lost after that time frame. That’s enough time that you could lose critical areas of sectors in such a way that data becomes unreadable. Yes hdd’s can sit for years without losing much data. However the firmware and os’s are able to handle some lost bits so it doesn’t seem like you lost data.
