your conclusion is incorrect

users of computers often just toss them out or dump them at a flea
market or swap meet or second hand store or thrift shop or donate
them to similar

because you got windows drives speaks to the larger number of windows
users

if the drive works for you use it

also there are plenty of stats you can get from a drive if you are
interested

either back it up or stop caring about the data on them
