Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Your optimism about SSD prices is IMHO unjustified.

NANDs are afaik still produced in 14-15nm so the only way they get more capacity is stacking multiple layers.

So even if they add more and more layers the price of these NANDs will run into a price/capacity wall.

I'm not saying anything about prices, just about available capacities.
