Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Anyone feel as they’re gaining popularity they’re increasing prices along with it?

I hesitated to buy the 20tb exos from Newegg due to poor shipping protection but SPD has 6 refurb-only items on sale while most items stayed the same price.

There’s a bit of a clusterfuck around hdds atm it seems. Prices are just stubbornly high and nobody is willing to move. But we all keep buying….
