Awesome Drives

Got 24 of the 28TB for our primary server in raid 50. Crazy fast and no drive failures since install 6 months ago. The cost has dubbed in the past 6 months, but we will still continue to buy additional drives as we grow, but will have to buy used drives until prices drop to ~600 a drive. Not $1,200. It’s 2026 and AI stuff is driving up the cost. 🐀

Great, Capacious Drive

Bought three of these 30-TB hard drives. Shooting video, and especially 4K, I go through a lot of hard drive space. I keep three copies of everything shot: One internal to my desktop computer. One in an external drive that is turned on only when in use (to protect from cryptolocker malware). And another in a safe deposit box (swapped monthly or after major shoots with the one in the external drive). These are an upgrade from three 24-TB drives that were about 80% full.
