Some wealthy techbro from /r/datahoarders is going to purchase this to store all episodes of Doctor Who in uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2 FFV1 Matroska remuxes with redundant PAR2 recovery archives.

Not quite yet.

The interesting thing here is ~256TB in a single drive, but it's in E3.L form factor.

I have about 160TB on hard drives that I'm waiting to offload onto a single SSD.

But that needs to come with a connector that has adapters to USB-C, so I can attach it to my Macbook Neo.

Hopefully they get it a bit more dense soon and into the 2.5" NVMe form.

Hitting a little too close to home with this comment.

Data retention is probably unusable for archival purposes.
