While I agree with the general idea, your example prices are no longer valid since storage costs are now through the roof. The best defense of kids using DVDs is that you can borrow them from the library for free.

    I think you missed his point. The NAS is cheap. The disks to put in it no longer are.

    I didn't miss his point. I wrote what the price of the drives are, he said nope, and I linked drives for that price.

    Those arent drives. Those are NAS housings. Specifically listed as "diskless" meaning they don't contain any hard drives or ssds

    The last two links are drives.

    I linked the NAS over and over from different storefronts as a petty response.

    I know what diskless is. My entire original post has a paragraph explicitly saying to buy a NAS and drives and their prices, because shocker I searched for current prices of items before posting my original comment, so then I'm not caught talking out of my ass like some other commenters are doing here in response to my post.

    Idk what to say to you other than you're being intentionally flippant. These are very simply things to search for online. The fact that I linked items proving my price claims are accurate and you sit there and move the goal posts and change the subject is the most moronic thing I have ever seen.

    Go touch some grass and then find something else to occupy your time with.

    Insted of saying "just google it" instead say "just search it" or "just look it up". There are many different search engines available, and do we really want google to be our word choice here? Akin to advertising imo. fuck promoting these companies.

    i do appreciate the links, but that's not what I meant.
