great thread
Asher Diaz
>one drive fails
>lose 16tb of data at the time
Luke Edwards
Not saying buy Seagate, but buy them in pairs
John Richardson
Because it's fucking expensive
Ian Davis
What for?
Juan Davis

Carson White

Landon Powell
>he buys 16 1TB hard drives
Charles Gutierrez
>buy 4 4tb hdd
>use a NAS
>raid 0 config
>runs faster than that piece of shit and now you have a NAS
Why do these exist? They will just fail and lose 16tb of data.
William Brooks
I no longer download and watch CoalGirls.
Austin King
And what the fuck would i store in them?
Elijah Diaz
How much?
Raid 0,.
If one drive fail, you lose everything..
Jordan Torres
anime, bideo games, etc
Lucas Turner
because 4x4tb is 200$ cheaper
Lincoln Diaz
>seagate
yikes!
Jaxson Bailey
i do just not one one easy to fail drive
don't put your oats in one basket
Matthew Gonzalez
Its the exact same with the 16tb single drive except its slower.
Adrian Cruz
except that with 4 drives the chance of premature failure is quadrupled
Jaxon Lopez
>not having 32 HDD slots
Brody Reed
Why do I need so much space when I have the Cloud™
Carson Davis
And an eighth as expensive to replace.
Pros outweigh the cons for me.
Charles Russell
Nobody fucking needs 16TB in storage. Holy shit what are you guys even saving that you need such a ridiculous amount?
Jonathan Campbell
There is no cloud, there is just someone else computer.
Wyatt Scott
porn hoarders
Kevin Reyes
>harddrive
No thanks.
Nicholas Rivera
More like 8 2TB SSDs
Joseph King
By downloading tone of music movie, it's possible
Christopher Diaz
True, every time a pedo is caught they have insane amounts of porn. Unless the news have been lying to us about this too, some people just have hundreds of terabytes of porn
Brody Bennett
So?
SSD?
Charles Reed
How mentally deficient do you have to be to not know to buy drives in pairs? Also the basic rule of drives is if you can't afford to buy at least 3 of the drives, you're too poor for said drive and should get smaller capacity.
Joseph Roberts
My server would benefit from it. I have a large and growing physical media collection that I rip and encode myself. Being able to stuff 16TB into the same 3.5" bay as compared to a smaller capacity it amazing. If I got my hands on just 3x 16TB drives I'd be able to replace my 7 drives I have now
Easton Rivera
*checks DrivePool*
>58TB
*checks pool duplication*
>2x
I think I'll be just fine, guise
Jayden Murphy
What the fuc k are you evens saving?
Chase Price
>Seagate
Nah thanks I prefer to keep my data.
Jose Stewart
probably something stupid and useless like 4k movies/tv series. unless you have a family or a shit ton of friends you will never watch that shit again.
Porn I can understand, since you often go back and fap to old stuff. I have not seen a single poster on Jow Forums with >20TB storage mention anything interesting.
Justin Watson
> The Exos X16 16TB HDD SATA model (ST16000NM001G) has an MSRP of $629
A 16TB HD or the down payment on a $1000 Apple Stand.
Tough call.
Cooper Johnson
That's "Erotica Curators" , my fine fellow.
Thomas Kelly
I haven't even fully used my 4 terabytes.
I save anime on an external drive so it isnt a problem
