Did this article really need ai pic of an HDD when actual pics exist & are freely available?
The prick writing it seems quite pro-slop so I guess in his eyes, it does.
They probably have no one who can photoshop „44TB“ on a Hard Drive and don‘t think it‘s worth hiring someone on Fiverr to do it. Media designers, being the creatives that they are were always undervalued and among the first to lose their jobs to AI.
Only AI companies is going to see the things, the way things are going.
Useless article. No dates, prices, specs other than the capacity, etc. It does mention this is a new HAMR platform that might reach 100TB in a drive someday.
Likely they are anyway already all “bought” with non-existing money by the usual suspect…
I got some inches to sell you.
Inches of what?
Just inches, bro. All the inches you could ever want.
Have Seagate sorted their shit out? I have never had any other manufactures drives fail so often in the last 25 or so years. I have them a fresh chance about 10 years ago in a PS4 and guess what? It failed.
This just sounds like 44Tb of fucking about restoring data to me.
Stop buying consumer tier Barracudas. Their enterprise stuff is actually good.
Good advice, but I’ve been burned so many times I’m just going elsewhere.
44TB HAMR and it’s gonna be thousands of dollars and sold out for achival use anyway.
The big wave of failures was related to a tsunami years ago. Their enterprise stuff fails at about the same rate as WD last i check. Phoronix or someone cloud data host release numbers annually
Louis Rossmann says his business works on Seagate more than any other brand.
The last time I had a Seagate drive, it was 1.2GB
Right, I’m never going back to Seagate. Their drives are shit. Although I do have 2 IronWolf 10TBs setup in raid and they have been going nearly 8 years nonstop now.
I don’t understand the hate against Seagate. I’ve only had Seagate in my PCs and none have failed for me in the span of almost two decades. In fact, the first ones I had are still around not having failed yet.
I really like my IronWolves. They never gave me issues so far.
They can suck my dick and balls. None of this benefits the average consumer.
It’s not their fault the average consumer doesn’t have a sizeable media library
Since piracy is argued to be fair-use, we should all have sizable media libraries.
I don’t get the responses disagreeing with you. Citing as-yet undefined needs of an AVERAGE consumer while completely disregarding that the people on Lemmy are far more tech-focused and that the average tech level of a consumer is that they can’t even turn the computer off and on again. Almost nobody needs such massive storage, it’s a very niche need. The vast majority would never run out with 1TB. I’ve got 3TB and a huge collection of music, movies and photos I’ve backed up and there’s still room to go. The clowns disagreeing with you are running an -arr stack and thinking “I could fill that…”
Literally nobody in the consumer market will care, and the DC crowd won’t buy this until they can prove failure rates.
The consumer market will care. They’ll just be priced so far out of the market, it’ll be unrealistic of them to ever hope to buy one.
