  • WOW!!!! So Many Hard Drives, You Must've Have A Total Of Like At Least 4 Or 6TB To Be Exact I Guess haha

  • @ScorpionSentai3000 I have 8TB in my latest RAID5 box. Not sure about the total of the rest.

  • Well aren't you lucky. I was in the market for another four to six 2-3 TB drives. But the stupid floods in Thailand have nearly doubled ALL harddrive prices.

    2TB WD drives went from €65 to €165.

    The 2 TB Hitachi's I bought last month went from €57 to €122.

    I wanted upgrade my file storage pc, but I guess I won't be getting rid of all my old 250, 500gb Seagates just yet. :(

  • @SmigaOne Now that is fascinating. I had no idea the floods had that kind of effect.

  • @ElevenColors Yea, turns out nearly all hard-drive manufacturers have their major components manufactured in Thailand. And the floods have hit a lot of their warehouses.

    But we should still be thankful that the only thing we're currently suffering from are rising hdd prices, a lot of people have it a lot worse.

  • @SmigaOne Aye... For some reason I have this totally unproven belief that factories moved to corners of the earth like Thailand do more good than all the charity thrown at Africa. Factories getting hit and potentially moved out of Thailand make me worry about their future & the cleanup after the waters recede.

  • Fuckin drives man. Western Digital, I will curse your name in Hell.

  • i remember my dad taking me to school, and we were talking about how the new hard-drive(I think it had around 2gigs of space), was more than we would ever need. LOL... at the time it was a lot for sure.
