I spent about $1200 for 100tb of spinning rust for one of my NAS boxes. Please tell me where I can get 20% more for 40% less!
For clarity, at the $240 per 20tb CMR drive, assuming no inflated cost due to novel production processes, it would be around $1440 for one drive. I’m going to assume ~$1600 minimum. Also, I’m not going to buy one until they can prove it doesn’t have the same issues as shingled drives.
Uhhhhhhhhhhh 3k minimum probablyEdit: this is HARD DRIVE not SSD, so im estimating $500 instead
Edit 2: im bad at this
$500 for 120TB!?

$500 would be an insane price. 16TB drives alone are like $300-500 CAD
I think the existing 100TB SSDs are over $10k. Halo products charge a premium.
I just want giant SSD’s for not an insane price. But don’t see it happening anytime soon.
