Don't do it user, you're going to fall down the rabbit hole and one day you'll wake up with a multi-PB home server.

aside from slow speeds, I don't mind'em.

i'm building a giant safe to just put harddrives in

You're going to drop that shit and have your day ruined.
t. guy who dropped 1 myself and had idiots drop 3 others

how to get faster speeds?

>letting idiots handle your hard drives - including yourself
Yeah, we know who the idiot in this picture is.

I fucking wish. If only HDD prices could fall as much as SSD prices did.

Nothing is worth archiving. It's all shit.

no

they die in like 5 years

the usb port is soldered to the hard drive

its also a 2.5 inch hard drive so its not worth it

They're fine for what they're intended but you can't convert them to SATA. Not without shenanigans anyway.

what a waste

Might as well buy a 2.5 SATA HDD and put it in an enclosure.

Put a 7200 rpm 2.5 SATA HDD in a USB 3 enclosure that should be an improvement on the usual 5400 rpm that in those pre-made ones.

I've been thinking of archiving my shit on 100gig Blu Ray MDiscs, because muh 1000 years

What says you, Jow Forums?

I say do it nigger

Does it have proprietary connector? if not, depends on the price. If there're internal HDDs that cost less then just buy the internal and put it in a docking station. Any archiving space is good for archiving, depends what you're archiving.

Movies
Books
Porn
and
Music
I'm putting them all in categories

Do you want to have backups of this archive? if yes, consider a NAS. Although you can do the same with docking stations, it requires more work in order to set it up properly, but if you got time to waste you can try anyway ("RAID 1" look it up). Docking stations naturally are cheaper and you can find a 4-bay one for easily 80 bucks, any equivalent NAS costs over 200.

Thanks mate
