idk how it is feasible to make a 24TB device that still transfers data at less than gigabit speeds. the fomo is real, but that transfer rate will never change.

I bought some enterprise drives few years ago. 2WD Gold (8+14TB) and a HGST (14TB) I hope I'm good for a few more years. Fuck I'm not paying 1K for a fucking hdd, I payed almost 400 for the HGST years ago.

Buying HDDs in debt because of fomo is fucking mentally ill behavior anon.
>>
>>109560576
Im in a similar situation anon.
I have a 256g ssd for running the OS and a 1 TB backup drive that is 60% full.
Im thinking for future proofing on getting a 5TB backup drive, should last me a good 10 - 15 years.

>>109560863
he's is not wrongs. though. the government wants power over the lemmings. and they will use AI like laex jones said to make a crystal ball with ai + floc cameras. they wont let it fall

Good job goy.

If I'm at a point where my government is doing that kind of s*** to me I don't want to stay in the country I'm just gonna move like the whole point of the server is to have entertainment I'm not gonna be able to watch entertainment if I'm constantly concerned about the government trying to hunt me down at that point a server doesn't matter because your main focus is gonna be trying to escape the country to survive

Bought a spare disk for my NAS incase a disk dies.

That should be me sorted for a long time unless two drives fail.
>>
>>109561394
That's the thing we're all pretty much gambling. Hope my disk doesn't break in next 5 years. Hope the backup doesn't die. But what after 15 years 20 years? Just accept death and entropy?

What is the latest tech in data storage other than what is already available?
I remember reading something about storing data in DNA or some shit, sounds dystopian thoughever.

>>109561615
All of it is WORM (Write once, read many) using lasers to engrave a 2D surface or a 3D volume
Volumetric storage, using glass (usually quartz or borosilicate):
3D optical storage
"5D" optical storage
Flat:
Cerabyte
piqlfilm

Only for data at rest. Write speed are low.

>>109561641

(there is also Microsoft's project silicia)
https://piql.com/technology/film/

Approaches with green and blue lasers (like the one's used by BR) are still evaluated

Historically, Ceramic and Glass have shown extraordinary endurance again environmental degradation.

>>109561653
>like the one's used by BR
I stand corrected, how foolish of me, the laser in BR is actually violet.
>>
>>109561524
>But what after 15 years 20 years?
I'm honestly expecting this pricing blip to have worked its way out long by then.

>Just accept death and entropy?
If prices don't come down then there are few options.
- spend more money
- consider tape (lower cost per tb, eg: lto5)
- if videos then consider better compression / lower resolution

There'll always be local mass storage.
- games are not getting any smaller, and consoles will need to be able to hold at least one game
- companies and businesses need storage
- if you rent rackspace in a datacentre to colocate something, that computer will need storage.

>Mad Max world
Gather old tablets and phones and raid them together for their storage :P

I've got a Seagate HDD from 2003 that still works perfectly in 2026. Seagate being a shit brand was always a meme.
>>
>>109560397
Microcenter put 8TB Ironwolfs on sale for $280 and they immediately sold out.

Slop thread. Slop bot OP, some slop bot replies. Total slop.
