minus-square@zecg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish85•2 months ago “For personal users, this SSD can store 11,000 90-minute 4K movies,” This is less useful than libraries of congress.
minus-square@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglish38•2 months agoI disagree. I very much want something like this at some point for media storage. One of these babies could replace all of my spinning disk drives.
minus-square@egidighsea@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglish20•2 months agoMake sure you make backups - it’s better to have multiple small drives in case of failure than one big, but in any case 3-2-1 backups!
minus-square@mac@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish13•2 months agoI only 3-2-1 my photos and configs. No need to back up my Linux isos
minus-square@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglish11•2 months agoThen I guess I disagree for a different reason—the ballpark estimate definitely helped me conceptualize how far that storage would go for me.
minus-square@glimse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish-2•2 months agoIt doesn’t say the bitrate of said movies so it is indeed useless
minus-square@WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglish9•2 months agoIt’s a ballpark average. The point is that it translates to “a holy shit ton of movies”. I need to store a holy shit ton of movies.
minus-square@AnAmericanPotato@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglish10•2 months agoBuy a dozen and you could fit a good chunk of LibGen.
minus-squareJeffool linkfedilinkEnglish8•2 months agoYeah really. It’s been years since I saw a 90m movie.
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish8•2 months agoHonestly, that size of drive doesn’t need a comparison. This isn’t for your average user, so you don’t need to dumb it down for them.
minus-square@SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish5•2 months agoAlmost two years of non stop video.
minus-square@ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.netlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 month agoYeah but are there any good ones?
minus-squareEcho DotlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 month agoYeah. My video collection tend not to be that long. Like 10mins normally.
