minus-squareWeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up39arrow-down1·1 month agoI disagree. I very much want something like this at some point for media storage. One of these babies could replace all of my spinning disk drives.
minus-squareegidighsea@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20·1 month agoMake sure you make backups - it’s better to have multiple small drives in case of failure than one big, but in any case 3-2-1 backups!

minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down1·1 month agoHonestly, that size of drive doesn’t need a comparison. This isn’t for your average user, so you don’t need to dumb it down for them.
minus-squareJeffool @lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·1 month agoYeah really. It’s been years since I saw a 90m movie.

minus-squareEcho Dot@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 month agoYeah. My video collection tend not to be that long. Like 10mins normally.
