I use h2testw, did you find any outright fakes (died first pass?)
This is a bit of a cherry pick.
Sure the drives are dropping slower but at the end of the day, I have a mental ‘limit’ on hard drive prices.
I paid $250 AUD for 3TB once.
Then I paid $250 AUD for 5TB
Then 8 and finally, 16.
It’s taken some time but it continues to evolve. It’s going to take a very long time before an SSD which lasts in excess of 5 to 10 years, matches HDD speeds (you heard me) and costs less than $250 AUD for 16TB.
Gotta be honest the 2 bottom ones need to go, for neatness, power use, etc - I just see no point in anything bigger than a 1L now unless it’s a total beast.
You can stack the 1L from Dell / Lenovo and HP all quite nicely.
Next cloud must be the worst piece of shit ever
I never stop seeing people complain about it :(
It sounds like the sync aspect was written by the crash plan folks.
