I’ve got 30tb or so made up of 4 and 10tb used drives. All I’ll buy anymore. In fact, I need to change out of of my parity drives. Hopefully used market is still somewhat affordable.

    I have four 8TB drives from last year and 4 externals from my old build that were healthy when they came off the last system.

    I might be a little ragged in 10 years but I'll still have a disk spinning if they aren't arresting wireguard users for terrorism by then.

    I used to pay like $69 for them in the US. Looks like they add a hundred bucks or so to the price…
