thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English3·13 days agoNot “bad”, consumable.
thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English1·13 days agoI specifically said to go off price and availability, just have a backup because they will fail.
thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English52·13 days agoMy recommendation is none of them last forever. Get what is available, decent price and warranty, replace when needed. Drives are consumable.

I think you’re just wanting to be negative today. I’ve used WD/Hitachi/Samsung/crucial drives the same way, everything dies. Resilver the data and move on, don’t expect drives to last more than a decade at the very most.
thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English1·13 days agoSure, but those that know of this, know that these news articles aren’t talking about ssd. This is hype news for consumer stuff.
thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English2·13 days agoI wish. I’ve got 6000 movies, 200 series, 300k songs, games, etc. pushing 30tb usage. I need to redo my setup, right now it’s raid 10. I know it’s not the most efficient with space, but I feel much better about redundancy.

thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English92·13 days agoThey’re mechanical drives, every mechanical drive company has issues. I have had 4 of the 20tb drives in a truenas setup since last summer with zero issues. Drives in this size should be redundant and under warranty, expect drives to die, they’re consumables. Replace, resilver, move on with life.
thermal_shock@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English81·13 days agoThese drives aren’t for home desktops, they’re more for server setups with large datasets and redundancy. Lol why do you need a 20tb drive in your main PC?
I have 4 x 20tb drives in a truenas where I have backups, movies, and music, network accessible for the whole house.

One can hope. Subscription just to backup saves is what fucked me up.
It’s for precedent on future games and to sneak in shit for later. Wittle down your expectations and privacy, make it “normal”.
