HDD has 100x the storage capacity vs SSD. What are you talking about?

Probably just go with SSD storage because 2T is fairly low for hard drives these days. Still a pretty good idea to do a mirror.

OP asked for 2TB and that’s easily done with SSD these days

100x ? Did you sleep for 15 years?
A 2tb SATA SSD has a comparable price to a 4tb SATA SSD.
If it wasn’t for the Al bubble the prices would be even lower

And a 4tb SSD is the same price as a 16tb HDD.
If that trend continues, when you get to a 100tb of SSD(s) the equivalently priced HDD(s) will have 100x the capacity.

4x is way far compared to 100x
the only case where hdds have a 100x ratio, is where apple scams their customers offering a 256gb upgrade for $200: it means $800 per terabyte (this price was a scam even 15 years ago), and a $500 18tb HDD is 100x “apple platinum grade ssd”

What decade do you live in? It’s closer to 2-4 nowadays, and 2TB is nothing
