are you buying FOMO?i just did. it hurts but im scared in 2 years itll be 3k
>>109560397Im poor so no
>>109560406im poor too but im debt maxxing. ill never afford a house so bankruptcy isnt a big deal. imma rack up 80k cc debt and then never pay it! thanks for the free RTX 6090!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>109560397im at 120TB now. including backups. so yeah im rdy. if any of my shit fails though.... FUCK imagine it failing in 10 years and you cant even buy an HDD anymore
>>109560397bro, there are 26TB drives on severpartdeals for like $700 lmao
>>109560463show me
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.
>>109560397I stopped buying when 22TB HDD was €400+.My 88TB total storage should be enough until the AI bubble pops.
my 4tb drive has remained 25% full for about 10 years now. i don't care
>>109560397>buying a seagate product>paying $1K for it
>>109560539My 1 TB drive is 6% full, lol. (My OSes are on two 256 GB SSDs.)
In the future, poor people cannot afford memory. They are like goldfish and wander around aimlessly.
>>109560516if there is a bubble at most stocks will fall(which i will buy the dip thank you very much) and then the giants will get bailed out cuz USA wants AI to track everyone they wont let these companies fail just cuz normies hate em. the prices will never go down bro
>>109560406this, i make 500k per week, i have a 10 inch cock , i have two wives who are supermodels and 10 kids
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.
>>109560674this is the intellect of your average ni/g/ger doom poster.
>>109560422Buying HDDs in debt because of fomo is fucking mentally ill behavior anon.
>>109560576Im 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.
>>109560863he'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
fuck my local hdds prices went up by $80
>>109560888debt is fake, they just write it off and get government kick backs anyway.
>>109560397Yall better buy your shit now cuz its never coming down again
>>109561046My dad went thru bankruptcy 5 times and they offer him cc a year or two after the 7 year period ends lol and he maxes out and doesn't pay Nothing Haippened to him ever.
Buy overpriced pc components and brag.Government limits your electricity and shuts it down completely if not using a thin client.Good job goy.
>>109561165Imagine not having solar and batteries in 2026 wow lad.
>>109561165 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
>>109560397Bought a spare disk for my NAS incase a disk dies.That should be me sorted for a long time unless two drives fail.
>>109561394That'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?
>>109561524What 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.https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167779923002354
>>109561615All of it is WORM (Write once, read many) using lasers to engrave a 2D surface or a 3D volumeVolumetric 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.
>>109561641https://www.5dmemorycrystal.com/(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 evaluatedHistorically, Ceramic and Glass have shown extraordinary endurance again environmental degradation.
>>109561653>like the one's used by BRI 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 resolutionThere'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 worldGather old tablets and phones and raid them together for their storage :P
>>109560422based, thinking of doing the samefuck the fake & gay system
>>109560551I've got a Seagate HDD from 2003 that still works perfectly in 2026. Seagate being a shit brand was always a meme.
>>109560397Microcenter put 8TB Ironwolfs on sale for $280 and they immediately sold out.
Slop thread. Slop bot OP, some slop bot replies. Total slop.
your shitgate hdd will be dead in 3 years time
