  • Amazon damaged their brand name once they started acting like a third-party marketplace. Now it's basically almost like ebay.

  • Tech has just reached the maturation point.

    As with every industry, there's a point where there's enough growth for a win-win for the company and consumers, so consumers benefit with new features; once that dries up the company starts squeezing, so consumers endure new features and use the product despite the changes.

  • who the fuck would use Google’s search popularity as a metric for the popularity of a technology

    that's been a leading indicator of popularity for a long time now.

  • some may laugh at that speed lol

    there's nothing funny about the ridiculous cable prices some places charge :( i used to have 15mbps until i moved and got 1gbps... seeing a tv show finish downloading in 3 minutes was an eye opening experience

  • damn, 4k takes up so much space.

  • Really? You must be pretty unlucky - i don't want to tempt fate here, but I've only had a couple of bad sectors here and there with my hard drives!

    I rewatch old shows a lot actually - i like to keep sitcoms playing in the background when doing chores.

  • The good thing about JBOD is that it doesn't take much work to set up at all (just plug em in), and you can access them any time. I tend to rewatch old shows a lot.

  • oh good call, thanks!

  • 10 TB of RAM

    I hope you mean hard disk space... otherwise I'm trying to imagine how many sticks of RAM you have there :)

  • wait till you collection grows beyond a few TB :)

  • i've been looking into snapRAID. It's software-based and seems to work great if you don't write/delete that much. Doesn't require a NAS setup too, it can work on an existing install and hard drives with existing data!

  • Do you have all your hard drives connected to your computer/NAS or are they in cold storage? I have 6 HDDs/SSDs combined on my computer and no more available SATA/M2 slots...

  • I just added a bunch of hard disks to my own computer, so my costs were pretty low - if I spread out the cost of my hard drives it's cost about $5 per month so far, and that number's still slowly decreasing every month.

  • much better than what i said :) thanks!

  • that's a really good price. was it used?

  • damn how's your NAS configured? How many drives do you have?

  • Storage space isn't as big a problem for music - for me, tv shows are the main issue.

    I like to rewatch shows a lot in the background - I like having The Office or How I Met Your Mother on while i'm doing chores or something, so I have a lot of shows stored. It takes a lot of HDD space, but I also don't have to pay for 3 different streaming services just to watch 3 shows

  • bahahaha no this is hilarious, a post like this belongs here my man
