Comment on PlayStation To Delete A Ton Of TV Shows Users Already Paid For
CalicoJack@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year agoOn the bright side, 20TB of hard drives is relatively cheap these days if you buy used. They’ll pay for themselves in a year if you kill the streaming services.
Happy sailing

A new 12tb costs about as much 1 year of netflix premium.

Might as well just rent a server at that point, more memory and performance for basically the same price.

You’re not getting a rented VPS for the cost of a 12tb hdd. You’re not getting any space with a server for that cost.

12tb is literally $100 right now new. also my fellow hoarders, save a bookmark to that site it’s great.
If you want to hit eBay and buy used disks, you can probably build something with redundancy and 20tb+ for around $300. If you’ve got a machine laying around and don’t plan on downloading everything on every service, you can grab 16tb used for $100, use one drive for parity, and the spend $50 when you run out of space for another 8tb.
