I always had high hopes for SSDs to come down in price enough to rival spinning rust, but it seems we’ve hit a wall around 4TB for the time being. If HAMR drives don’t turn out to be outrageously expensive, I’ll be spinning discs in my NAS for the foreseeable

Omg don’t remind me of the SMR fiasco. I once bought an SMR drive by accident and didn’t understand why overwriting lots of small files happened at like 5kbps…I couldn’t believe it when I found out!
