I am surprised by that too. I thought everyone moved to SDDs or NVMe ?

I was toying with getting a 2T HDD for a BSD system I have, I guess not now :)

Everyone moved to SDDs or NVMe. If you're right, that includes manufacturers. HDDs still have advantages over SSDs for specific needs, like more reliable long-term unelectrified storage. It's also possible that the high price of SSDs made HDDs an option again.
