cleaning up a cupboard, I found this. I wonder if it's still good.

I wonder, what the highest density #harddisk or any other storage media that one can reasonable #diy is these days?

(Not counting data compression, just the raw uncompressed amount of data you could store on any storage media you built yourself).

Cassette tapes would probably be the easiest as that has already been used once in the past. But there for sure must be other/better/different options with todays "diy-level tools and capabilities", right?

It occurred to me that I've had a #harddisk fail on me and lose data in like 2001 and vowed to only use #raid ever since.

And I have, my primary laptop has 4 #nvme drives in raid10, my thin and light has 2 in raid 1, my desktop 4 in raid 10 also.

It also occurred to me that even since the first sata ssd I've used I've never not even once had an #ssd fail without warning, ever.

I'm probably gonna keep using raid but I'm beginning to think maybe it's not really necessary any more...

Western Digital has zero hard drives left for 2026. It’s February...

AI companies are deliberately creating physical memory scarcity so your data only lives on their infrastructure.

The goal is not innovation. It's holding your memories hostage and forcing you to rent space and useless AI compute that serves no real purpose.

AI Companies Bought Out All of Western Digital’s Hard Drives for 2026 Already

Thanks to data center demands, Western Digital has committed all of its HDDs for at least the rest of the year.

Friends on Facebook:

Ooooh look at this AI cartoon avatar I created. Isn't it amazing?

Me:

I can't fucking buy hard drives for CCTV systems for love nor money because of AI data centres glutting them all.

CCTV system:
Beep beep bee-de-beep. "Storage failure"

@ScottHelme Is it a multi-layer PCB?
That looks like a surface-mount capacitor to me but I am not even slightly an expert.
Wondering if you might be able to "just" solder in a replacement cap if you can find the value. I did a quick search but could only find a whole new PCB (which I spose might be an option).
Anyone know more?
