I guess we'll have to wait for 20 TB SATA SSD to be affordable 🙄

So they want to reduce hdd sales even more ? Except the Nas market and few users that need extra cheap storage... Who else needs em? "Obviously I am not talking about enterprise the segment"

how? why?
How: Stablebit Drivepool Why: Reasons and stuff ;-) -- p.s. I would add a lot more capacity if HDD manufacturers wouldn't do this sh|t explained in the article every year or so... Prices have stagnated for 3-4 years now, I bought my first 14 TB HDD with around 250€ in 2019, and guess what, that's where they are today as well (despite several bigger capacities added on top, those are simply... more expensive !)
