Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Is it me, or does it not seem like there are many decent black Friday deals on any kind of internal storage whether it be a spinning hard drive or a solid-state device? My last drive purchase was a 16 TB Toshiba enterprise and they paid $225. Black Friday deals. Don’t even come close to this. Except, perhaps, if people are willing to shuck.

Not in Canada :( or at least where I am which is bullshit.

Always heard about drives at Costco but of course we don't get them.
