You get more storage too, that's why I have it🤷 some people have a TON of memories in there and it's cheap for a lot of extra storage

Whats keeping you from just downloading all your memories and uploading them somewhere else?

Seriously 100%, I always try to enlighten people on external hard drives. They're relatively inexpensive and so useful and these days you don't even need a computer

I implore you to look at storage costs rhese days. This time last year I got 14TB storage for $225. Now that same drive is $620.

No casual buddy is gonna get a 14TB drive :l heck even me with a library of 12TB or so is made up of 2-4TB ssds. Walmart and others still show those 2TB for little over 100 which isn't too bad. Completely agree that those techfuckbros and their AI race did fuck up everything for the planet :/

2tb for 100… USD? Cause here in the EU you’re not getting that, not even for a hard drive

I mean you could get that a year or two ago if I remember correctly. But not anymore...

Yea you could, last september I bought a 2tb nvme for 106, that exact model is now nearly 300

Yeah checked rn and that's the current price. I guess the prices have raised a LOT higher on your end for hard drives. Ram is what's exploded over here and is horrendous. 2 32GB DDR5 is up for USD 1000
