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.

Seriously I just wanna buy some 8TB NVMes for the same price as 4x2TB NVMes. Or give me a cheapo not premium flash 16TB SATA SSD, if an NVMe one just isn't doable.

Let us get beyond the 2TB SSDs!

You can get an enterprise 7.68TB drive for $530: https://www.amazon.com/SOLIDIGM-D5-P5430-Solid-State-Drive/dp/B0C96FTCS3

It's a little more than 4x2TB but you get enterprise reliability.
