How old is too old when using HDD for external storage?

Reading 0:00
15s threshold

So I have an external Seagate 2tb HDD from 2013, it only has 2026 power on hours and 479 power on count according to crystaldiskinfo. Just after someone's opinion on whether they'd trust to use such an old HDD for storage of photos etc. or whether I should buy a new nvme SSD for peace of mind (and ease of access via a usb C enclosure). Thanks
