More capacity -> more platters, more heads, larger motor -> more components that can fail.
In general higher density recording technology also leads to a more complex mechanical system. And we all know that the possibility that something breaks in a complex system is much higher than in a simple system.
On the other side technologies like automatic sector relocation, SMART, shock protection, etc. compensate these negative effects.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
