HPE 900GB disk drives - excessive failure rate?

We currenty experience a large number of failing disk drives and I wonder if this is only here or if anyone else has the same problem...?

Model 870795-001, 900GB SAS 15k (mfg by Hitachi?)

The problem is that most of the failed drives (predictive failure) are not older than one year. We bought them new and we always test all new drives before the go to stock. Every one had only 2-3 operating hours, no errors and a brand new mfg date. About one year later (now) they failed.

Anyone else with excessive failures of this type?
