Seagate just unleashed 44TB hard drives - Lemmy.World

They can suck my dick and balls. None of this benefits the average consumer.

I assume that’s the same way people felt like in 1980, when IBM released the world’s first >1GB hard drive.

It was as big as a fridge and cost $100k in today’s money to buy, for a whopping 2.5GB of storage.

My astrophotography projects are several GB each, my phone can shoot 4k RAW video that eats up 6GB a minute and it’s all hobby-level.

I wouldn’t mind if those 44TB drives became more affordable in a few years, I’m already saving up for a 24TB NAS.
