I have cupboard full of them , SD cards , portables - my wife keeps wanting me to find some photos of a horse - need to boot an old PC and hunt for those, by plugging in old drives, hardly hot swap material - as Pata drive or what the s name was for flat band ribbon.Oh, I was going to ask you a series of questions to show you why you were wrong, but I guess we don't have to do that now. an HDD NAS can stream 4k video to several devices without issue. I honestly just want someone to make an argument as to why HDDs are obsolete now.
I just want 2 cheap super reliable 1 PB drives to rule them all , 1 as main one as offline , of premises backup , Is that too much to ask
My main storage is still big drives , but I want my next build to have 3 or 4 M2/M3 whatever slots - 4Tb at least , 8 or 16 at best .
The main advantage is working speed - I encode remuxes for fun - fast drives speed that up big time
