And I remember when I thought my new 340mb HDD was all I would ever need. LOL!

Saegate keeps pushing technology. At what point will the hard drive finally succumb to the SSD? Hard to measure. For now, I like he hard drive, despite a measly 320 gig I have now. Solid state will eventually rule, but when?

Several years ago I attended a computer club’s yard sale. It was surprisingly large with a lot of goods. I did find some old ram modules for 50 cents each. I actually needed them.
I noticed a brand new Realistic 200 baud modem. It was still in a sealed box and had an original price of $400. The guy in charge told a guy to just mark it 50 cents and if they thought that was too much, just give it to them.
I am not computer savvy but I bet some people would have had a good time there.

My wife could fill it, She’s already max’d out a 3TB drive with thousands of religious sermon videos.

That’s a lot of 5 1/2” floppies.

That's putting a lot of your eggs in one basket!
But when they get cheap enough, they'd sure make for a nice RAID!

Seagate hard drives suck. They are some of the worst in the market. I can only imagine that their new 8TB HD sucks (crashes) AT LEAST 8 times as much as their 1TB drives.

It takes more than 1,000 days estimate to scan a 3T drive for bad blocks... So, that’s something that no longer gets done ....

When are they going to figure out how to stop computers from crashing so that the hard drive becomes worthless to the average person. It just means we lose more data.
