8TB? That’s my ideal RAM configuration lol. ;-)

Okay cool, cool, so does this mean ridiculous data centers will use these things, and then can I get another 4TB RED for my NAS so I can fit my whole life on a mirrored total of 8TB without paying 8x what it’s worth, please?
Thaaaaanks…

If not joking, that would you want a huge amount of ram for on a server?

Is there a Lemmy community for trading surplus hardware yet?
I have a pile of HDDs and servers that I no longer use. I’ve transitioned almost all mine to 20tb+. I might have 8 or 10 4tb REDs laying around. They’re old, probably have thousands of power on hours in the smart data though.

Are you in Europe by any chance? :)

Ah, no. Sorry. Midwest, USA.

No apologies needed, I’m not even OP :) it was just a long shot :D
MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
Right on!
I don’t know if there’s a hardware trading community yet. I think one challenge is simply how lemmy seems to aim for more general anonymity than reddit, and the DM system isn’t really used to my understanding. (Except by “that fediverse girl” LOL)
Establishing a sense of reasonable trustworthiness to thwart bad actors might take some work.

I set up a community on midwest.social (because I’m in the midwest) !homelabsales@midwest.social
