Can anyone explain to me what this poster means? I'm serious, I can't tell if he has good info or gibberish. I have no idea what this countdown to extinction drive issue is. And drives only fail when new?

Maybe he's talking about some firmware related issue, e.g. a SMART counter. But it sounds more like a rumor, a data field overflowing at 999 is very unlikely. A 1 byte width counter would overflow at 2^8 (255) and a 2 byte field at 2^16 (65535), 4 bytes at 2^32 (~4.29 B) and so on.
Assuming SMART and looking at this table I would say that the SMART data is stored in some kind of a 256 bytes width module, e.g. flash, EEPROM or something similar. I could somehow "understand" the above-mentioned posting if the data would be stored in some XML format for example, but now that we know the layout, it is very unlikely.
