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.

Open it up and check. Is this your model? https://pcnight.com/desktop/dell-optiplex-3060-micro/ Looks like it might, but I don't have one on hand to verify.

You could probably get 2 8tb SSDs in here if you can afford them.

It looks like it has room for one 2.5" drive, and one M.2 NVME drive.
